Artwork Statement
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
There are players who entertain — and there are players who conquer.

In mythology, Ares is the god of war. Not of strategy, but of sheer impact. He doesn’t wait. He charges. He doesn’t calculate. He collides. And in this spirit, Ronaldinho was never just an artist — he was an attacker. A force. A rupture in motion.

He didn’t dominate with size, but with rhythm. He didn’t destroy — he dismantled. Through invention. Through tempo. Through the violence of beauty. His was not a war of destruction, but of disruption. Every dribble, every strike, every feint was a declaration: style is a weapon.

The Art of Attack is not about aggression. It’s about assertion — a way of saying, I’m here, and the game will shift around me. Ronaldinho’s attack wasn’t brute force. It was precision chaos. It was joy sharpened into danger.
Ares, if he had worn cleats, would have played like this.
