Denial- Daniel Bombardier

The Shape Of Capitalism Original Hand-Painted Multiple (HPM) on Wood Cradled Panel ready to hang by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered HPM Limited Edition Artwork Size 24x24 Featuring works from Denial’s nearly decade-long career, his often satirical approach works to combat mass media, consumerism, and advertising by taking familiar imagery and objects and re-contextualizing them into unique artistic statements that drive the viewer to question the worth and difference (if any) between art and advertising. Building on a long line of pop-driven work, Enjoy Denial finds Denial harnessing the negative corporate energies spewed upon society and turns them back against the established power structures that control our everyday lives. With this exhibition, Denial peels back layers of overloaded advertising and logos to shine a not-so-subtle light on the deceptions society combats daily from corporations. 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.

I hope my work would suggest only the opposite: to show the ridiculousness of it all and how we may find better solutions for the future." -Denial Denial's "Look Busy The Boss is Coming..." as a Commentary in Street Pop Art "Look Busy The Boss is Coming..." is a striking piece of modern pop art by the graffiti street artist known as Denial, a pseudonym for the Canadian artist Daniel Bombardier. His 2020 creation is a signed, limited hand-painted multiple (HPM) edition of only ten pieces, each with dimensions of 13.5x11.5 inches. This mixed media spray paint artwork on a laser-cut wood panel is a ready-to-hang piece that encapsulates the humor, irony, and critical commentary that street pop art and graffiti artwork are known for. Denial's work is often lauded for its vibrant use of color, layered meanings, and thought-provoking content that challenges societal norms and behaviors. In "Look Busy The Boss is Coming...", Denial uses laser-cut wood panels to bring a three-dimensional quality to the work, emphasizing the text's impact and the message's urgency. The layered text, with its bold letters popping against the dark background, creates an illusion of depth, while the cartoonish eyes add a playful yet satirical element to the piece. Denial's signature style, which often includes a combination of text and image, invites the viewer to engage with the artwork on multiple levels. Exploring the Layers of Meaning in Denial's Artistic Expression Denial's artistic expression in "Look Busy The Boss is Coming..." is multifaceted, reflecting the complexities of the human condition and the often-absurd workplace reality. The phrase "Look Busy" is a satirical take on the performative aspect of productivity in modern society, where appearances can sometimes outweigh actual efficiency or contribution. The addition of the watchful, exaggerated eyes serves to underscore the constant surveillance and pressure employees feel in the professional environment. This piece speaks volumes about the current state of work culture, where the fear of authority and the need to appear perpetually occupied can overshadow the value of genuine work. The statement made by Denial through this artwork echoes his broader perspective on life and society. As the artist himself has noted, his work addresses severe and, at times, sinister themes through a lens of absurdity and satire. The goal is not to promote a bleak outlook but to use humor as a tool for reflection and, ideally, to inspire conversations that lead to better solutions for societal issues. The whimsical yet incisive nature of "Look Busy The Boss is Coming..." exemplifies this approach, as it holds up a mirror to the audience, prompting them to question and perhaps laugh at the absurdities of their daily routines. Impact and Reception of Denial's Street Pop Art The impact of Denial's "Look Busy The Boss is Coming..." is significant in the street pop art community and among art collectors. As a limited edition piece, its value lies in its scarcity and potent commentary wrapped in an aesthetically pleasing package. The work resonates with a broad audience due to its relatable content and accessible presentation. Denial's ability to distill complex social critiques into visually engaging street pop art makes his pieces sought after by both seasoned collectors and new enthusiasts alike. Denial's work, including "Look Busy The Boss is Coming...," contributes to the ongoing dialogue about the intersections between street art, pop culture, and social commentary. His unique voice in art has garnered attention and respect, illustrating how street pop art and graffiti artwork can transcend traditional boundaries and enter meaningful discourse with a broader public. Through his creations, Denial continues to challenge perceptions, provoke thought, and offer new perspectives on the world we navigate daily.
