The "Sharktoof- Cigarette Pack Pink Limited Resin Sculpture" is a powerful expression of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Created in 2016, this limited edition piece stands out for its striking visual appeal and commentary on consumerism and the concept of guilty pleasures. With only 100 pieces made, this delicate art toy became a sought-after collectible among art enthusiasts and collectors. Each four-sided sculpture measures 13.5" x 10.75" x 5.5" and is presented in a gift box with a die-cut foam form that securely cradles the artwork.

The unique gradients and the artist's logo on each piece ensure that every collector gets a one-of-a-kind work of art. The Symbolism of the Cigarette Pack The sculpture takes the shape of an opened cigarette pack, a universally recognized image loaded with cultural significance. The cigarette as an object represents many ideas, including controversy, rebellion, big business, and a form of rugged toughness. Through this artwork, Sharktoof aims to provoke public discourse on guilty pleasures—those we indulge in despite societal pressures to feel shame for them. Sharktoof's reflections on the subject matter are embedded within the sculpture. His approach to the silhouette of the cigarette pack is intended to be graphic and unmistakable, a visual cue that triggers a deeper reflection on personal indulgences and the associated societal implications. A Reflection on Guilty Pleasures In his own words, Sharktoof has expressed a fascination with the idea of guilty pleasures and the shame often linked to them. The sculpture serves as a visual challenge, prompting viewers to confront their vices and the emotions they elicit. It's a bold statement on how such pleasures are perceived and the inner conflict they can create. The stark contrast of the pink against the dark background of the sculpture is more than just an aesthetic choice; it represents the juxtaposition between pleasure and guilt, the vibrant and the forbidden. The shark imagery within the pack adds another layer of meaning, as sharks are often associated with danger and fear, much like the risks associated with the very act of smoking. Sharktoof's Legacy in Modern Pop Art Sharktoof's work has always pushed the boundaries of street pop art and graffiti artwork. His bold lines, vivid colors, and incorporation of emblematic symbols speak to a generation that is deeply attuned to the visual language of pop culture and social commentary.

As a piece of art, it stands as a marker of its time, encapsulating the ethos of street art's ability to comment on and reflect societal norms and deviations. Collectors and admirers of Sharktoof's work are not just acquiring a piece of art; they are embracing a piece of cultural dialogue that challenges perceptions and invites introspection. The "Sharktoof- Cigarette Pack Pink Limited Resin Sculpture" is more than an object of visual appeal. It is a conversation starter, a statement piece, and a reflection of the artist's deeper narrative on societal behaviors and personal choices. Through this work, Sharktoof has cemented his place in the contemporary art world as an artist who dares to address the uncomfortable, controversial, and often unspoken, making his mark with each brush stroke and idea he sculpts into reality.
