Hoop dreams is a collage print that combines sport, ambition and myth-making through surreal scale and impossible space. A basketball player is frozen mid-air, arm raised, holding the Earth like a ball as he drives toward the hoop. The court dissolves into a cosmic backdrop, turning a familiar sporting moment into something epic and absurd.

The work plays with ideas of aspiration and pressure — the literal weight of the world resting on a single action. There is confidence and humour here, but also tension, as the leap feels both triumphant and precarious. Sport becomes performance, and performance becomes symbolism.

By placing a human figure against the vastness of space, Hoop dreams reflects on ambition, ego and belief. It is about reaching beyond limits, even when the scale of the task feels impossibly large.

Produced as an open edition mounted giclee, this print has strong visual impact and works especially well in contemporary interiors where energy and narrative matter.
