WHO SAID PICASSO IS BETTER THAN ME
“WHO SAID PICASSO IS BETTER THAN ME” isn’t just a title—it’s a punchline, a provocation, and a declaration of generational rebellion. This artwork dismantles the hierarchy of artistic legacy with playful audacity. Drenched in purple chaos and scribbled confidence, it dares to challenge the myth of the untouchable master by becoming the meme-version of modern genius.
Fragments like “I am 21,” “Youth has no age,” and “Art is chaos taking space” transform the canvas into a battlefield between ego and irony. The central figure—somewhere between a cartoon and a self-portrait—channels both naïveté and swagger. It’s not about technical skill; it’s about owning the space, loud, messy, and unapologetic.
Here, art isn’t sacred—it’s streetwise. Picasso is not the threat; irrelevance is. This piece doesn’t claim to be better than Picasso. It claims something far more dangerous: that it doesn’t care.
