Layers of Legend
A fusion of legacy and reinvention, Layers of Legend deconstructs one of the most iconic faces in sports history—Muhammad Ali—through a modern, fragmented lens. Using Andy Warhol’s renowned portrait as a foundation, this piece reassembles the cultural icon with dynamic brushstrokes, abstract markings, and bold, intersecting lines that symbolize the complexity of his impact.
The layered textures and graffiti-like elements channel the energy of both fine art and street culture, reflecting the duality of Ali’s presence—not just as a fighter in the ring, but as a symbol of resistance, confidence, and artistry. The slashes cutting through the composition mirror the way legends are built—not in a single moment, but through struggle, triumph, and reinvention over time.
Like Warhol’s original work, this piece immortalizes Ali’s presence, but through a new perspective—where pop art meets raw, expressive deconstruction. Layers of Legend is both a tribute and a transformation, honoring a figure who transcended sport to become a timeless force in culture, activism, and art itself.
