PP Printer Proof 2020 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x11 Silkscreen Print Exploring the Intricacies of "In HDL We Trust PP Printers Proof" by Hygienic Dress League The "In HDL We Trust PP Printers Proof" silkscreen print is a captivating piece of street pop art encapsulating contemporary socio-economic commentary's essence. Created by the Hygienic Dress League (HDL), a duo known for their intelligent and satirical take on corporate culture and consumerism, this artwork stands out as a limited edition print that delves deep into the fabric of modern society's values. This piece was hand-pulled, utilizing a three-color process on 290gsm Coventry Rag Vellum fine art paper. This choice underscores the quality and attention to detail the HDL invests in its artwork. The limited edition nature of this print, marked PP for Printer's Proof and signed by the artists, points to its exclusivity and collectibility. Measuring 18x11 inches, the print showcases the HDL's iconic visual language, often featuring figures in gas masks. This motif anonymizes individuals while commenting on themes of environmental degradation and protection. The figure is poised, presenting a pigeon against an ornate, golden circular pattern that evokes a coin — directly referencing the title "In HDL We Trust." This imagery is a clever twist on the phrase "In God We Trust," traditionally found in US currency, suggesting a critique of the deification of corporate entities in modern culture. Symbolism and Technique in HDL's Silkscreen Print The Hygienic Dress League's print of "In HDL We Trust" is not just a visual treat; it's a narrative layered with symbolism. The juxtaposition of the pigeon, often seen as an ordinary or even pesky creature, with the superb, almost religious iconography creates a dichotomy that invites interpretation. It could be seen as a statement on the value placed on the mundane or overlooked aspects of life, as contrasted with the grand narrative of corporate trust and power that HDL critiques. The choice of silkscreen printing, a method with roots in both commercial and street art, further bridges the gap between high art and the more rebellious forms of street pop art. The technique used in this artwork, silkscreen printing, is particularly significant in street pop art and graffiti artwork. This method, known for its bold, clear lines and vibrant colors, is ideally suited to the graphic style of HDL. The three-color process in creating "In HDL We Trust" allows for a high level of detail and a range of tonalities that give the piece depth and texture. Using Coventry Rag Vellum fine art paper, a heavyweight and durable medium, ensures that the artwork has a quality feel and can stand the test of time. In summary, "In HDL We Trust PP Printers Proof" is a thought-provoking example of street pop art that demonstrates the power of this medium to challenge and critique. The artwork's limited edition status, sophisticated technique, and deep symbolism make it a significant piece for both art collectors and those interested in the intersection of art, society, and cultural commentary. Through this print, the Hygienic Dress League continues to question and redefine the boundaries of street pop art and graffiti artwork, offering a fresh perspective on the role of art in reflecting and shaping public consciousness.

Silver Moon Limited Edition 3-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on 290gsm Coventry Rag Vellum by Erik Otto Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Where my mother grew up in Texas, one of the largest employers was NASA, and she was fortunate enough to be present during the Apollo 11 mission that resulted in man's first step on the moon. Through this influence and my early discovery of Carl Sagan, I developed a curiosity for the solar system, the elements that connect us all, and the many symbols different cultures apply to the cosmos. The silver moon concept combines the self-reflective qualities of silver and the healing powers of the moon. Separated marks carefully arranged and suspended within the composition each depict natural elements while producing a suggestive horizon with the moons sitting still in its fullness on a seemingly endless black surface. This piece was created during a time of reinvention within the studio as I committed to producing an all-new body of work exploring the symbolic characteristics of waves and water. " - Erik Otto
