This original artwork, Minnie Wears ©Versace – Homage to Hirst, is a representation of the iconic Minnie Mouse conceived according to Garotto’s vision. The famous character, eternal love of Mickey Mouse, was created by The Walt Disney Company in 1928. With gloves, bow, a polka-dot dress, white bloomers and low-heeld shoes, Minnie is a protagonist in more than 70 films and a source of inspiration for fashion designers and artists in general. She is one of Disney’s most beloved characters and has also captivated Garotto’s imagination, who has produced with his unique work for the Medusa Collection. Ten years ago, Damien Hirst, inspired by Minnie Mouse, made his own version of this famous mouse as a symbol of the joy of being a child for a children’s charity. Now, Garotto, in turn inspired by Hirst, reinvents Mickey Mouse and her girlfriend Minnie Mouse, recovering the essence of that message. In the series Mickey Meets Medusa, Garotto joins the ©Versace fashion brand and the artistic icon, Minnie Mouse, innovation, and tradition. From the handmade wooden base to the figure, the whole piece has been meticulously designed, carved, and polished, then covered with original ©Versace Home materials. Through a process of conceptualization, with key elements, such as the polka dots or the heels symbolising fashion and femininity, using a wide variety of textures and a range of colors between black, gold, white and red, and his unique style, the artist has come up with this three-dimensional work. This work of art can be shipped worldwide from Garotto Art’s studio in Sitges (Barcelona), Spain. –
