This evocative mixed-media piece showcases Patino's masterful fusion of innocence and urban edge. The artwork features a monochromatic child in aviator gear seated on vintage suitcases, accompanied by a bright yellow bird, while graffiti elements in vibrant blues, reds, and yellows explode across the top and bottom borders.
 
Patino's distinctive style is evident in his sophisticated blend of nostalgic imagery and street art elements. His careful attention to the contrast between the contemplative figure and the dynamic graffiti details creates a piece that perfectly embodies its title, suggesting aspirations that transcend urban boundaries.
