Kobe the Mamba

Kobe the Mamba

Artist: Selina Yung

Media: Print of original collage 

Size: 11 x 14 in.

The fully blooming flowers also symbolized Kobe’s success, his record of winning three championships in No. 8 (purple) and two championships in No. 24 (yellow). Even though the “Mamba" has one less championship than Jordan's six (depicted with the top left flower bud that’s not fully bloomed) resilience is the willingness to not quit, and to stay determined to make a difference.
