Located on the island of Crete, Greece "The Prometheus Project" is a 100 ft. physical earth, fresco mural painted by artist David Popa. The Prometheus project seeks to discover mans creative origins through the lens of myth and story. Popa’s work seeks to enter into the realm of anthropology as it relates to origin, nature and the destiny of human beings. By using natural pigments such as charcoal, earth pigments and ground shells, he uses the same raw materials that would have been used in the earliest cave paintings 40,000 years ago. The result is work that appears to be a revealing of a latent life, waiting to be uncovered. This uncovering however, is incredibly brief, as Prometheus has significantly disappeared since its creation in September 2021. It is this dynamic conversation with the ephemeral, natural world that infatuates Popa and beckons the viewer to consider the nature of our brief existence and relish in it’s profound mysteries and everyday miracles.

A 1/1 hand signed, fine art giclée print will accompany the sale of this NFT. This will be the first 1/1 print ever released by Popa. (Any size is available)
