Challenge
The bicycle was realized for a client who chose Andy Warhol as the name for the bicycle. It was an old dam, a city bike that needed a complete facelift, repaint and oracalography. The project does not reflect the concept of Vorgol's works arising from the order, since the condition was to choose an idea and a color scheme. In the end, the customer settled on light green and yellow, the color is ours - yellow, and shades of light green became part of oracleography. A light collage context is present, however, in the performance technique. The oracle is cut into squares of several sizes and thus a graphic collage is created in combination with Vorgol's signature. In fact, it is a hand-made mosaic. The rover is made on a planetary bushing.
