Bodybuilding carried to its most extreme levels can practically be considered an artistic expression, a form of body art.

Puzzling BB Mr. Olympia NFT explores how bodybuilding, when it reaches its most extreme levels, can be considered a form of artistic expression. Bodybuilding is transformed into a practice in which the human body becomes a living sculpture, shaped with a perfection in anatomical proportions and muscle hypertrophy.

In recent years, bodybuilding has become increasingly popular due to the growing emphasis on hedonism and the pervasiveness of social media. This phenomenon has led many people to engage in extreme training and obsessively share images of their bodies on social media. As a result, new standards of body beauty based on muscular hypertrophy have emerged, surpassing normal conceptions of naturalness and creating new aesthetic standards.

The widespread dissemination of this practice and its prominent presence in social media mean that bodybuilding aligns perfectly with the concept of Pop Art. Bodybuilding, therefore, is not only a sport but also an art form that reflects and amplifies the values and trends of contemporary popular culture.
