In This Together Woodblock Print by Ravi Amar Zupa Hand-Pulled on Reclaimed Wood Panel Limited Edition Artwork. 2020 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 40 Artwork Size 4x5.75 Woodblock Print on Ready To Hang Slightly Distressed Wood Panel Depicting a Jolly Roger Skull and Cross Bones with Crown. Artwork Says: Social Distancing With Love 2020 In This Together. "In This Together" is a profound woodblock print by Ravi Amar Zupa, an artist known for his intricate hand-pulled prints on reclaimed wood panels. This limited edition artwork, part of a collection of only 40, reflects a moment defined by the global pandemic and encapsulates the ethos of solidarity and resilience. Measuring 4x5.75 inches, the piece is a compact yet powerful statement, ready to hang and slightly distressed, which adds to its raw appeal. The print features the iconic Jolly Roger skull and crossbones, crowned, a symbol historically associated with piracy but recontextualized here to signify unity in adversity. Symbolism and Technique in Zupa's Work Ravi Amar Zupa's choice of imagery and text in "In This Together" is evocative and timely. Paired with a crown, the skull and crossbones traditionally symbolize death and power. However, in the context of this artwork, they take on a new meaning, representing the collective struggle and the need to 'reign' over the crisis with compassion, as suggested by the phrase "Social Distancing With Love." The woodblock print technique, a traditional form of printmaking, lends a sense of timelessness and connects the work to a long history of artistic expression. At the same time, the reclaimed wood panel serves as a reminder of sustainability and resourcefulness. Cultural Resonance of the Artwork The cultural resonance of "In This Together" within the street pop art and graffiti artwork scene is significant. It captures a shared sentiment that transcended borders during the pandemic—solidarity. Zupa's work often explores themes of social and political significance, and this piece is no exception. It speaks to the heart of street art's social role: to comment, unite, and inspire. This artwork is not just a reflection of the times but also a rallying cry, a statement of support and empathy that resonated deeply during a time of global uncertainty. Collectability and Impact on Contemporary Art The collectability of "In This Together" lies in its limited edition status, signed and numbered by Zupa, which adds an element of exclusivity. The work's size makes it accessible, while its message and craftsmanship make it a significant addition to any collection of contemporary street pop art and graffiti artwork. The piece's impact is further enhanced by its medium—woodblock printing on wood panel—which bridges traditional art-making techniques with modern themes, thus appealing to a wide range of art enthusiasts and collectors. "In This Together" by Ravi Amar Zupa is a compelling piece of contemporary art that resonates with the communal spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Through traditional woodblock printing on reclaimed wood, Zupa creates an artwork that is both a testament to the times and a timeless piece of artistry. It stands as a symbol of unity and love in a year marked by separation and uncertainty, offering a message of hope and togetherness that is as universal as it is powerful.

Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine HPM Hand Made Limited Edition Mixed Media, Reclaimed Items, Spray Can Sculpture Artwork by graffiti street artist modern pop artist Eddie Colla. 2020 Signed & Numbered HPM Made & Printed Limited Edition of 30 Spray Paint Can Sculpture Artwork. These Are Art Pieces, They Are Not Medical Devices. "I originally made these fake inhalation vaccines as props for two installations I did with D Young V, Epilogue, and Memento Mori. The installations revolved around apocalyptic possibilities. These recycled Spray paint cans were meant to be discarded inhalation vaccines that the World Health Organization had distributed during a global pandemic. The labels contain information about application dosage and active ingredients. I did a lot of research regarding previous pandemics, such as H1N1 (bird flu). The idea was to create an artifact as real as possible to resemble a failed attempt to contain a global pandemic." Eddie Colla Artistic Representation of Global Pandemics Eddie Colla's "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" mixed media artworks reflect a hauntingly prescient take on global health crises through the lens of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. This limited edition series, consisting of only 30 signed and numbered pieces, incorporates reclaimed items and spray paint cans to form sculptures that stand as poignant artifacts of apocalyptic possibilities. Created as part of two installations with fellow artist D Young V, "Epilogue" and "Memento Mori," Colla's sculptures were designed to represent discarded inhalation vaccines distributed by the World Health Organization during a fictional global pandemic. These installations explored themes of human vulnerability, societal collapse, and the interventions that come into play during such catastrophic events. The sculptures themselves, crafted to mimic the appearance and informational detail of real medical devices, resonate with the realism and urgency of a world grappling with the threat of pandemics. Colla's meticulous research into previous health crises, such as H1N1, informed the creation of this spray can sculpture. The labels on each canister are detailed with application dosage and active ingredients, contributing to the authentic feel of the pieces. This attention to detail not only enhances the visual impact of the sculptures but also embeds a narrative that ties them to the real-world context of public health emergencies. Cultural Commentary through Mixed Media The "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" sculptures starkly comment on the intersection of art, science, and societal response to global health challenges. By using reclaimed spray paint cans, Colla repurposes the mundane and aligns his work with the ethos of recycling and sustainability. These themes are increasingly relevant in contemporary discourse. These sculptures transform the spray can, a ubiquitous tool in street art, into a vessel of deeper meaning, reflecting on the throwaway culture and the implications of medical waste. This body of work also questions the efficacy and accessibility of healthcare interventions, highlighting the disparity between the intended purpose of medical devices and their actual implementation in crisis scenarios. Colla's sculptures suggest a history of use and urgency when these objects were vital to survival. The limited edition nature of these pieces emphasizes their uniqueness as artworks while alluding to the scarcity of resources that can occur in times of crisis. Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork's Evocative Power Eddie Colla's contribution to Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork is characterized by his ability to evoke robust responses through objects that bridge art and reality. His sculptures are not passive objects; they are conversation starters that prompt viewers to think critically about the state of the world and our responses to impending dangers. In the tradition of street art, these works are accessible yet complex, visually striking yet laden with meaning. The "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" series underscores the evocative power of street pop art and graffiti to comment on and engage with current events. Through this series, Colla extends the narrative capabilities of street art beyond the walls and into the three-dimensional realm, offering a tangible connection to the issues that permeate our collective consciousness. In essence, Eddie Colla's "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" sculptures embody the innovative and reflective qualities of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. By blending art with societal critique elements, Colla captures the imagination and ignites discourse, cementing his role as an artist who observes and participates in the broader conversations of our time. His work is a reminder of art's impact on interpreting, understanding, and questioning the world around us.
