Hyperrealistic painting of a classic red Mini Cooper with cream roof viewed head-on, its grille and chrome bumpers gleaming against a deep black background. The bonnet bears a cream racing roundel with the number “007,” while above it floats a shiny pink mouse-shaped balloon with a black bow tie, tethered by a thin red string. Playful yet satirical, the scene humorously reimagines British motoring culture and spy glamour.

MINI BALLOON 007 (Original)

With *Mini Balloon 007*, Ana Herrero transforms the humble Mini into a parody of espionage glamour. The '007' number humorously shifts from Aston Martin’s cinematic aura to a car of everyday British identity, while the mouse balloon with a bow tie becomes an ironic companion, mocking the elegance of the tuxedoed spy.

Concept Statement Ana Herrero’s *Mini Balloon 007* uses satire to question cultural myths. The Mini, marked with the famous '007', is reimagined as Britain’s secret agent, while a fragile balloon shaped like a mouse in a bow tie becomes its unlikely sidekick.

The red string connecting car and balloon is a recurring motif in Herrero’s work, a playful connector between fragility and power. By blending national icons with circus absurdity, Herrero exposes the theatre behind British motoring culture and invites viewers to laugh at its mythology Artist Ana Herrero
