    Into the Madness Again Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by Denial pop culture LSD artwork. 2021 Signed Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 7.5x7.5 Archival Pigment Print on Perforated Blotter Paper Size: 7.5 x 7.5 Inches Release: April 19, 2021. Limited blotter editions are hand-perforated by Zane Kesey & may vary slightly from the example shown. Denial’s art is strongly political and social since the artist takes specific positions against issues, such as capitalism, consumer culture, and advertisements. More importantly, the artist is aware of his choices and motivations: “I like to think of myself as activist pop art. How I relate with cartoons and graphics is a lot easier than I do with photo-realistic stuff" Another aspect of Denial's work is humor. His work is satirical, which, by definition, means that it uses humor as a confronting mechanism.

Self-­confessed ‘visual thieves’, both artists have had a long history of stealing and subverting the cultural icons that the advertising and consumerist world has thrust upon us to create new and pertinent interpretations that are as confronting as they are humorous. Denial and Frost formed an instant friendship after meeting in Canada in 2011 and have been creating engaging street and gallery work ever since. "Company of Thieves" sees their collaboration push further, with large and small-scale works referencing Pop Art, Graffiti, and the corporate world they rebel against. In the world of Denial, memory is essential because it is the basis of his work, as it nostalgically encourages the audience to engage with it. As a result, his art is as familiar as it is disturbing because it reveals the most unsettling parts of society, the ones we are in a “denial” of. No matter its controversial history, graffiti is less and less viewed as a form of vandalism.

Denial has evolved as one the most prominent figures of contemporary pop artists, who nonetheless, continue to stay relevant and is interested in generating thought-provoking commentary. He has a long history of exploring the boundaries of appropriation, which he uses as a means of subverting the value of cultural products, imprinted in the collective memory of the Western civilization. His work, in other words, is inviting the viewer to re-imagine our dystopian society as a way of confronting it, with humor and irony as the biggest tools of the artist.

Bombs & Explosions

Symbolism of Bombs and Explosions in Art

In the landscape of street pop art and graffiti, bombs and explosions have emerged as powerful symbols. These motifs often convey conflict, energy, disruption, and transformation messages. For many artists, the depiction of explosions represents a moment of impact—literally and metaphorically—a sudden release of energy that can imply destruction or the birth of something new.

Historical Context in Pop Art

The use of bombs and explosions in pop art can be traced back to the movement's origins, where artists like Roy Lichtenstein brought the aesthetics of war into the public eye through his comic book-style paintings. This imagery, often vibrant and jarring, invites viewers to contemplate the juxtaposition of violent content and bold commercial graphics—a commentary on the normalization of war in media and popular culture.

Evolution in Street Art and Graffiti

Street artists and graffiti writers have adapted the bomb and explosion imagery to fit the context of urban environments. Murals and tags depicting these themes serve as a form of social commentary or as metaphors for the artists' experiences and struggles. In the hands of street artists, these images can be inflammatory, provocative, and sometimes, a call to action.

Techniques and Styles

The visual representation of bombs and explosions varies widely among artists. Some may opt for a hyper-realistic approach, while others embrace a more abstract or stylized depiction. Techniques such as stenciling, freehand spray painting, and stickering are all employed to capture the immediacy and intensity associated with explosions. The style chosen by an artist often enhances the intended message, whether it is one of critique, celebration, or irony.

Contemporary Relevance and Interpretation

In contemporary times, bombs and explosions in street pop art and graffiti remain relevant as artists respond to current events and societal issues. The imagery reflects the times, capturing the collective consciousness and communities' reactions to the tumultuous events around them. Artists can preserve historical moments, spark dialogue, and inspire change through their work.
