Keep Your Salad to Yourself, Caesar! This Is California! We Surf With Sharks!
by © emma cha

Surf crowns clash with Rome,
salted spray defies empires—
sharks cheer from the blue.

A pop-surreal Californian heroine rides a bold wave as a comic-styled shark erupts beside her. Bright colors, graphic outlines, and humorous antique references fuse into a vibrant tableau where ancient authority meets West-Coast irreverence.

Artistic Statement:
This work blends Pop Art, neo-comic stylization, and postmodern satire. It reframes classical iconography in a bright, rebellious surfscape using flat shapes, bold outlines, and kinetic splashes to mock the collision of empire, kitsch, and beach-culture heroism.

Influences:
Roy Lichtenstein shapes the comic-line language; James Rosenquist inspires collage-like overlays; Keiichi Tanaami brings psychedelic pop explosions; Erró fuels satirical mashups of history/pop culture; Kenny Scharf adds cartoonish surreal energy and vibrant chromatic play.
