Local artist Sherwin Banfield’s new Biggie sculpture unveiled at Brooklyn Bridge

A really big art installation of Biggie is now on display at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Queens-based artist Sherwin Banfield’s latest sculpture honors the legacy of late hip hop icon Christopher “The Notorious B.I.G” Wallace, also known as Biggie Smalls.

Standing nine feet tall, the stainless steel and bronze, mixed media structure was unveiled Tuesday at “Clumber Corner,” which is the North East corner of Prospect St. and Washington St. in Dumbo.

Titled “Sky’s the Limit in the County of Kings,” the work of art — commissioned by the Downtown Brooklyn + Dumbo Art Fund in partnership with NYC Parks’ Art in the Park program — is expected to be on display throughout the spring of 2023.

The interactive installation includes one of The Notorious B.I.G.’s “Ready to Die” CDs embedded with resin in a Coogi sweater-style mosaic backdrop accentuated by tiger medallions evocative of the Versace brand. Placed in the hands of the sculpture are a golden heart and a gold microphone.

An audio system playing some of the “Juicy” rapper’s popular tracks was mixed by Mister Cee, the trailblazing deejay credited with Biggie’s discovery.

Banfield, who excited hip hop fans earlier this year with a similar structure of LL Cool J in Flushing Meadows Park, tells The Daily News he’s worked on the installation for about a year.

“It’s incredible,” he said of seeing his third project highlighting hip hop artists out in public. “This for everyone that’s visiting Brooklyn. If you walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, you come off that first stair exit into downtown Brooklyn, in DUMBO, and you will see shimmering, stainless steel and bronze with the crown. And it’s there overlooking [everything], perched on a hill.”

The 46-year-old Parsons School of Design alum said the project came “about organically” when his cousin pointed him to the open call for submissions. “I had this idea for this monument to Biggie, I had the drawings, I had a proposal all set, should an opportunity come up.”

Hip hop, he said, has always been the soundtrack to his life, but it took on a different meaning when the Bad Boy Records superstar — the victim of a still unsolved 1997 unsolved murder — came on the scene.

Tuesday’s unveiling caps off what has now become a year-long celebration of The Notorious B.I.G., who would have turned 50 on May 21.

In May, the Empire State Building changed its colors to red, with a crown spinning in its mast, while limited-edition MetroCards featuring the artist were sold at three subway stations near his old Bedford-Stuyvesant stomping grounds.

Lincoln Center also hosted an orchestral tribute at a creative outdoor black-tie event in June, featuring a concert symphony performance of Biggie’s songs and his 1994 debut “Ready to Die,” was named the greatest hip-hop album of all time by Rolling Stone.
