The artwork entitled “RIP David Bowie”, created by the artist Noma Bar, belongs to the Neo-Pop Art movement and is categorized under the genre of design.
The artwork features a minimalist, stylized portrait rendered with bold and simplified shapes. Dominated by a sleek and polished aesthetic, it captures a side profile with striking three-tone contrast of black, white, and yellow. The image prominently features a lock of stylized yellow hair and a white cigarette held in the mouth. The character’s facial features and expression are abstracted and emphasized, fitting seamlessly with the graphic and contemporary style characteristic of Neo-Pop Art. The composition’s use of simplicity and negative space evokes an impactful and poignant homage.
