TRAVIS BICKLE
Travis Bickle: The Shadow of New York
A fixed gaze, a silhouette carved by the harsh glow of neon lights. Travis Bickle, a legendary figure of cinema, emerges from the asphalt of New York like a vengeful specter. His profile, marked by a radical Mohawk, embodies both rebellion and isolation. Black and red, like a forgotten ‘70s poster or a defiant graffiti on a crumbling wall, he seems ready to dive into the night. Taxi Driver (1976) is more than just a film—it’s a scream, a descent into the underbelly of a city on fire. A lone anti-hero, Travis Bickle reflects a fractured society, an American dream twisted by violence and solitude. His taxi slices through the night, drifting through the urban chaos as a silent witness to his own unraveling.
An illustration blending vintage and punk, paying tribute to this era, this cult film, and this unforgettable character.
