    Marwan Shahin Anubis Afterlife Silkscreen Print by Marwan Shahin

    Anubis Afterlife 4-Color Hand-Pulled Diamond Dust Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Egyptian Papyrus Paper by Marwan Shahin Street Art Pop Artwork Artist. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 30 Size 14x17.5 "Shahin Studios is delighted to present ANUBIS AFTERLIFE by Marwan Shahin; this is the conclusion of months of experimenting with different stains to age the Papyrus paper. The new edition of the artwork is interpreted with hand-pulled four color Silkscreen print on Soy-Stained Authentic Egyptian Papyrus, and each print intricately arranged with a lattice of black Diamond Dust, to produce visually intoxicating kaleidoscope-like effects." -Marwan Shahin. The Creative Odyssey of Marwan Shahin's "Anubis Afterlife" "Anubis Afterlife," a mesmerizing creation by Marwan Shahin, represents a striking convergence of ancient tradition and contemporary artistic practice. As a street pop artwork, this limited edition silkscreen print on Egyptian papyrus paper encapsulates the spirit of modern pop art while paying homage to the rich iconography of ancient Egypt. The use of authentic papyrus as a medium is a salute to the time-honored methods of artistic expression, further enhanced by Shahin’s innovative aging techniques that lend the work an air of antiquity. Artistic Alchemy on Papyrus Shahin, an Egyptian street art pop artwork artist, embarked on a meticulous process of experimentation to perfect the aging of the papyrus, aiming to achieve a soy-stain effect that imbues the paper with an ethereal quality reminiscent of historical artifacts. The artwork, a limited edition of 30 and 14x17.5 inches, features the god Anubis, the ancient Egyptian deity associated with mummification and the afterlife. This figure is intricately detailed with four hand-pulled silkscreen layers, culminating in a visually arresting and richly symbolic composition. The incorporation of black diamond dust in the artwork adds a tactile dimension that catches the light, creating kaleidoscopic effects that enhance the mystical aura of the piece. Diamond dust, a material once popularized by Andy Warhol, reflects Shahin's ingenuity in combining traditional screen-printing techniques with the luxurious embellishments in pop art. The resulting work is an homage to Shahin's homeland's cultural heritage, street art's vibrant energy, and the glossy sheen of pop art. Marwan Shahin's Visual Fusion of Past and Present "Anubis Afterlife" is a testament to Marwan Shahin's creative vision, where Egyptian art's rich legacy intersects with street pop art's bold immediacy. Through the figure of Anubis, Shahin bridges millennia, conversing with the symbols of ancient mythology while engaging with the aesthetics of the present. The choice of Anubis, a deity symbolizing the passage to the afterlife, suggests exploring themes such as transition, transformation, and the eternal cycle of life and death. This piece's introduction of street pop art into the pantheon of Egyptian motifs presents a unique narrative layer. In much the same way street art often appropriates and recontextualizes images and symbols from mainstream culture, Shahin reclaims an icon from his cultural history, reinterpreting it through a modern lens. This reimagining places "Anubis Afterlife" within the lineage of pop art that challenges and redefines the boundaries between high and low culture. A Tapestry of Time Woven by Marwan Shahin Marwan Shahin's "Anubis Afterlife" is a luminous example of how contemporary artists can delve into the wellspring of their heritage while contributing to the global convert conversation, underscores the potential of street pop art and graffiti to serve as a platform for cultural storytelling and artistic innovation. Through his fusion of mediums and motifs, Shahin crafts a visual tapestry that spans the ancient and the avant-garde, inviting onlookers to contemplate the seamless continuity between history and modernity. In pop art and street art, Shahin's work exemplifies how traditional elements can be re-envisioned to resonate with new audiences. His intricate layering of colors and materials transcends mere reproduction, offering an immersive experience that reflects the past and is a beacon for the future of artistic expression. "Anubis Afterlife," with its textured narrative and visual splendor, is a fine art collectible and a piece that captures the dynamic spirit of street art, embodying the pulse of a culture that reverberates through time.

    Diamond FAILEdoodle- Red/Tan 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen, Acrylic, Spraypaint, Silkscreen Ink and Glitter Print on Archival Lenox Paper by Faile Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. 2022 Diamond FAILEdoodle: Red/Tan 19 x 25 Inches Each variant an edition of 25 Acrylic, Spraypaint, Silkscreen Ink and Glitter on Archival Lenox 100 Signed, Stamped and Embossed A new breed of Faile Dog was born last year. First found on the streets of New York this pup found its way into the studio and really came to life. We've been pushing our shimmering print process lately and this felt like the perfect print to introduce this into our practice. Four different editions, two in red glitter and two in black glitter. All stained, sprayed, painted and printed; it's all the hallmarks of a studio print now with a lot more shine. Once their artworks enter the public sphere, the viewer is invited to engage and interact with them. FAILE does not believe in a higher meaning or an absolute truth that exists outside of the audience’s perception, which eventually is encouraged to sculpt the meaning. The creative process jumps from one theme to the other, connecting everything in an intertextual delirium and, in the end, the audience takes the responsibility of interpreting it. This is, by itself, a revolutionary act of anti-elitism, since the meaning of the work can be now found in the mass’s reaction, placing FAILE in the spectrum of site-specificity and relational aesthetics.

  • Morsel HPM Archival Print by Laura Bifano

    Laura Bifano Morsel HPM Archival Print by Laura Bifano

    Morsel Limited Edition Archival Pigment Hand-Embellished Prints on 330gsm Fine Art Paper by Laura Bifano Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "The painting was originally done for a show at Thinkspace Gallery called “Picks of the Harvest.” I had played around with a few ideas initially, but nothing seemed to take shape until I took a road trip up Vancouver Island to visit family. The scenery was stunning emerald green farmland dotted with grazing sheep, so I used that as a jumping-off point for the painting. I’ve always loved English Pastoral paintings and knew right away that I wanted to do something in a similar vein. I decided to introduce a predatory element to this otherwise idyllic scene, and a family of Wolves seemed appropriate. At the time I was also watching a steady stream of BBC nature documentaries and it got me in a contemplative mood, thinking about the cycles of life, death, and rebirth. I think that introducing the element of these artificial pixel sheep adds a touch of whimsy and levity to an otherwise morbid image." - Laura Bifano

Renowned for his visually striking and thought-provoking pieces, Frost’s work often incorporates iconic imagery from mainstream media and consumer culture. His subversive art is characterized by the juxtaposition of these symbols with themes of excess, addiction, and the superficiality and wastefulness of consumer culture. Infused with a critical edge and often laced with dark humor, his paintings, prints, and installations defy conventional aesthetics and present a chaotic and relentless assault on the senses. Goof Ball Archival Print by Ben Frost is an exemplary representation of the mélange between pop art and street art that has been taking the art world by storm. Ben Frost, an Australian artist renowned for his juxtaposition of commercial imagery and his own iconic style, often draws inspiration from the relentless bombardment of visual stimuli that constitutes the modern world. He has a predilection for utilizing vibrant colors and satirical commentary, which can be seen in the Goof Ball Archival Print. This piece specifically combines the aesthetic sensibilities of pop art, a movement characterized by its fascination with popular culture and consumer goods, with the edgy, raw, and often subversive nature of street art. Frost's Goof Ball Archival Print is captivating in its visual immediacy and use of iconic characters and logos. The inclusion of popular cultural symbols makes it relatable, while its brazen critique of consumer culture, inherent in the juxtapositions, lends it a certain depth. With the audacious strokes reminiscent of graffiti art, the work strikes a balance between the refined and the rebellious. It is a high-quality archival print, which ensures the longevity and preservation of the vivid colors that are a hallmark of Frost’s work. As a seminal piece in the contemporary fusion between pop, street, and graffiti art, Goof Ball Archival Print is an invitation to not just glance, but to analyze and introspect on the commentary it makes about our culture. This artistic gem, thus, warrants appreciation from both art aficionados and casual observers alike.

Brown & Tan Color Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Subtle Impact Brown & Tan in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Understanding Brown & Tan's Place in Urban Art

Tan, a color often associated with subtlety and earthiness, is uniquely positioned in the palette of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It is a hue that can go almost unnoticed yet is integral in creating a piece that resonates with realism and warmth. In urban art, tan is not the shout but the whisper that draws the viewer closer, a subtle nod to the natural amidst the concrete.

Earthy Presence of Brown in Urban Artistry

Brown, the color of earth, wood, and stone, carries with it an organic essence that is often injected into the urban art scene. In street pop art and graffiti artwork, brown is employed for its natural connotations and its ability to evoke a sense of stability and resilience. With its myriad shades from tan to chocolate, this color brings a grounding effect to urban art's often vibrant and chaotic world, offering a visual reprieve and a connection to the natural world. 

Artistic Applications of Brown's Varied Tones

Artistically, brown is a versatile player in the color palette of street artists and pop art creators. It can provide contrast and depth as a backdrop, allowing brighter colors to stand out. In technique, brown can be layered to create a textured effect reminiscent of natural surfaces or applied in smooth, flat areas for a solid and unyielding presence. The tactile qualities of brown paint, whether in a matte finish that absorbs light or a gloss that adds a touch of sheen, contribute significantly to the physicality and emotional resonance of the artwork.

Symbolism and Cultural Significance of Brown

In cultural symbolism, brown communicates honesty, reliability, and the foundational elements of life. Street pop art and graffiti often utilize brown to represent the urban environment—bricks, dirt, and decaying infrastructure. It's a color that can speak of the grit and the grind, the city's underbelly that is as authentic as it is overlooked. Brown's earthy tones are also symbolic of growth and renewal, a reminder that even in the concrete jungle, the cycle of life continues.

Utilizing Tan in Artistic Expression

In the hands of artists, tan is a color that requires finesse and control. Its muted tones provide a neutral ground upon which bolder colors can emerge with clarity and focus. Tan is often used for shading and giving dimension to images, lending a lifelike quality to street murals and pop art pieces. The ability to layer tan shades over one another can produce an array of textures, simulating everything from sandy surfaces to human skin, making it invaluable for adding detail and depth.

Cultural and Aesthetic Significance of Tan

Tan carries a cultural and aesthetic significance that is both understated and profound. Street pop art and graffiti can evoke a sense of the past, represent the human form, or blend art seamlessly into the urban environment. Tan speaks of the organic, untouched, and serene, countering city life's vibrant, often chaotic energy.

Compositional Strategies Featuring Tan

In terms of composition, tan works as a balancing element. It can soften the visual impact of a piece or serve as a bridge between disparate colors, tying them together in visual harmony. Its use is strategic, often employed by artists to create a sense of cohesion within their work. In the background, tan can recede, allowing other elements to stand out, while in the foreground, it can highlight the intricate details often lost in more vivid colors.
