  • About the artwork
    Artist: Pawel Borzym
    Title: Power Drunk Popeye
    technique: Real bullets/ metal/ brass
    Size: 122/63.5/30 cm (around 25kg)
    Edition: 1/1, unique piece

    Power Drunk Popeye is a unique, one-of-a-kind sculpture by Polish artist Pawel Borzym. The piece is made entirely from recycled bullets and shotgun shells, giving the iconic cartoon character a raw, industrial edge. Borzym’s work often explores contrasts between familiar pop culture figures and unconventional, reclaimed materials — and this sculpture is no exception. It captures a bold moment of transformation: Popeye, no longer powered by spinach, but by something far more volatile.
    With incredible detail and craftsmanship, this piece is both a commentary and a collectible. No copies or reproductions exist — this is a true original for serious collectors of contemporary or mixed-media art.
  • About the artist

    Pawel Borzym (born 1982) is a self-taught contemporary artist known for transforming instruments of destruction into symbols of reflection and peace.

    Working with spent bullet shells as his primary medium, Borzym challenges viewers to confront the tension between violence and beauty, chaos and creation.

    Each piece he creates carries both a physical and emotional weight — the cold precision of metal repurposed into forms that evoke empathy, remembrance, and resilience. Through this process, Borzym gives new meaning to discarded materials, turning them into timeless statements about humanity and transformation.

    His work stands as a powerful reminder that art can disarm — not through words, but through the poetic reimagining of what once divided, now reshaped to unite.
