  • The Possessed Triptych Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson

    Cleon Peterson The Possessed Triptych Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson

    The Possessed Triptych Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson Hand-Pulled on Deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2024 Signed & Numbered Cleon Peterson Limited Edition of 125 Artwork Size 154x18 (18x18 x 3) Triptych Silkscreen Print. Unveiling The Possessed: A Triptych by Cleon Peterson The Possessed Triptych Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson captures a raw, dynamic energy that is both compelling and confrontational, embodying the spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Released in 2024, this limited edition artwork reflects Peterson's stark, narrative-driven style, showcasing his distinctive approach to visual storytelling through bold lines and contrasting colors. Cleon Peterson's Vision in Print With only 125 pieces available, each signed and numbered by the artist, The Possessed Triptych becomes a coveted item for art enthusiasts and collectors. Measuring an impressive 54 inches wide by 18 inches high when displayed side by side, the three 18x18 panels create a striking visual impact. Hand-pulled on deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag fine art paper, the triptych's medium is as refined as its execution, a testament to Peterson's craftsmanship and attention to detail. The choice of Coventry Rag paper underscores the artist's commitment to quality. Known for its durability and exceptional surface, this paper enhances the depth and intensity of the silkscreen print, allowing the stark contrasts and intricate details to resonate with the viewer. Interpreting The Possessed Triptych The Possessed Triptych is an arresting exploration of chaos, power, and human interaction. Peterson's work is often laced with themes of struggle and strife, depicting scenes that challenge the onlooker's perceptions of morality and order. This triptych is no different, presenting a tumultuous narrative that unfolds across the three panels, drawing the viewer into a world of stark dichotomies and raw emotion. Peterson's use of a limited color palette amplifies the drama within each frame, with the stark black and the warmth of gold engaging in a visual dance that is both ancient and contemporary in its expressions. The aggressive forms and the interaction of figures suggest a more profound commentary on societal structures and personal demons, leaving much to interpretation while clearly stating the pervasive nature of the conflict. The Cultural Impact of Peterson's Work Cleon Peterson's art is not created in a vacuum but is a direct response to the world around him. Much like the rest of his oeuvre, the Possessed Triptych is a bold statement within street pop art, a genre that often serves as a public forum for social critique and reflection. His distinctive style has solidified his standing within the contemporary art scene, resonating with the ethos of street art and its roots in graffiti's transgressive nature. As a visual storyteller, Peterson takes on the role of a modern-day chronicler, using silkscreen prints to document and dissect the complexities of the human condition. The limited nature of The Possessed Triptych ensures that each piece is a part of this narrative, an artifact of Peterson's artistic journey, and a snapshot of cultural discourse. Cleon Peterson's The Possessed Triptych is a powerful addition to the canon of street pop art and graffiti artwork, offering a glimpse into the artist's profound engagement with themes of power, chaos, and societal constructs. Through silkscreen printing, Peterson has created a series that captures the eye and also provokes the mind, ensuring that his work remains a subject of discussion and admiration within the art community.

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 is a Canadian artist who experiments with aerosol and stencil art, while his main fields of interest are consumerism, politics and the human condition in today’s society. Since the culture of graffiti was gaining more and more popularity in the US and Europe, the taggers had to be increasingly original in order to stand out. The signatures became bigger, more stylized and more colorful.

    Denial- Daniel Bombardier American Daydream Silkscreen Print by Denial- Daniel Bombardier

    American Daydream Limited Edition 9-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. In 2012 DENIAL started ‘Free 4 All Walls’ which is the largest public art project of its kind in South West Ontario. Bringing artists from around the world to beautify and re-invigorate public walls around Windsor, the government-funded program has been a huge success in supporting the local community and promoting the value of street-art in contemporary society. In the world of Denial, memory is important, 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- Daniel Bombardier American Daydream PP Foil Silkscreen Print by Denial- Daniel Bombardier

    American Daydream- Foil PP Printer Proof Limited Edition 9-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on 10pt Lava Foil Holographic Fine Art Paper by Artist Denial. PP Printers Prood 2021 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition 9-Color Screen Print on 10pt Lava Foil Holographic Fine Art Paper Size: 18 x 24 Inches Release March 09, 2021 Denial's "American Daydream-Foil" in the Landscape of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork "American Daydream-Foil" by the artist Denial, also known as Daniel Bombardier, is a thought-provoking piece encapsulating the spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork. As a Printer's Proof (PP) limited edition, this 9-color hand-pulled silkscreen print is a rare and collectible piece of art, released on March 09, 2021. The use of 10pt lava foil holographic fine art paper gives the artwork a mesmerizing quality, with its reflective surface creating a sense of depth and movement that enhances the visual impact of the piece. The artwork's size, 18 x 24 inches, is substantial and ideal for capturing the intricate details and vibrant colors that Denial employs. Each print in this limited edition is signed and marked PP by the artist, denoting its exclusivity and the artist's direct involvement in the creation and approval process. The holographic effects of the lava foil paper interact with the silkscreen ink, resulting in a dynamic piece that changes with the viewer's perspective and the surrounding light. Denial's work often comments on consumerism, politics, and the media, and "American Daydream-Foil" is no exception. The image of a woman's face, reminiscent of the classic pop art style made famous by artists like Roy Lichtenstein, is overlaid with a dazzling pattern that reveals and conceals her features. This interplay suggests the tension between reality and the manufactured dreams sold to society, a recurring theme in Denial's oeuvre and a poignant critique that resonates deeply in street pop art and graffiti. Reflective Surfaces and Societal Reflections in Denial's Art The reflective surface of "American Daydream-Foil" is a literal and figurative mirror, inviting viewers to reflect on their perceptions and the societal constructs that shape them. Denial’s use of foil is remarkably evocative, as it not only catches the eye but also suggests the allure and superficiality of the American Dream. The way the artwork's appearance changes with light and angle can be seen as a metaphor for the shifting nature of this dream and the elusive pursuit of happiness within modern American culture. The piece's limited release and its Printer's Proof status elevate its value in the art market, making it a sought-after item for collectors of street pop art, graffiti artwork, and modern pop art. The PP mark signifies that this particular edition was used to check the quality before the final run, often kept by the artist for personal reasons or sold to discerning collectors who appreciate the rarity and authenticity of such proofs. Denial's "American Daydream-Foil" is a powerful addition to the narrative of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It bridges the gap between the rebellious origins of street art and the refined techniques of fine art printing, creating a piece that is both a statement and a spectacle. As with much of Denial's work, the piece is imbued with layers of meaning, challenging viewers to look beyond the surface and consider the more profound commentary on the culture surrounding them. In contemporary art, "American Daydream-Foil" stands as a vibrant example of how traditional pop art motifs and modern techniques can come together to create something that reflects and reacts to the society from which it springs.

    Solitary Child 3 Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Hikari Shimoda Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Solitary Child is a series of works, focused on my original theme of the inevitability of the Apocalypse. In this series, I am offering a new savior for humankind- she is a magical girl (Solitary Child #1) and a little boy hero (Solitary Child #3). In the world of my paintings, humanity has perished, as seen in the collage background, where there is an expressed chaos throughout. In these images, my saviors have come upon the dying human race. After the death of man, the world has found some relief from the turmoil that he has brought upon it. Meanwhile, mankind selfishly dreams of newfound happiness in his afterlife. In the mythology of my work, as humanity is destroyed, only one figure remains and that is the Messiah represented as a child. The magical girl was the first to be left alone after humanity was destroyed, left to deal with the despair and damage he left behind. Her eyes are shining and sparkling, but her stare is blank. In contrast, my hero’s eyes are closed ever so gently. To him, everything in the world is very chaotic and overwhelming. He feels all of its happiness, despair, hope, sadness, everything… in such a state, even the world’s savior must shut his eyes to it." - Hikari Shimoda

    Separated- Black Open Edition Vinyl Art Toy Collectible Artwork by Street Graffiti Artist Kaws. 2021 Out Of Print Open Edition Size 7" Tall Separated (Black), Vinyl 7 87/100 × 6 3/10 × 7 9/100 in 20 × 16 × 18 cm The Intersection of Emotion and Street Art: KAWS' "Separated" in Black In the diverse realm of modern street pop art, "Separated" is a compelling work by the influential street graffiti artist KAWS. This black open edition vinyl art toy collectible, released in 2021, manifests a profound emotional depth rarely seen in the genre. The piece, measuring 7 inches tall, encapsulates a moment of poignant solitude, with the iconic Companion character in a vulnerable, seated posture, its face buried in its hands. This artwork, no longer in print and thereby increasing in rarity, is a testament to KAWS' ability to traverse the boundaries between mass-produced art toys and high art. It serves as a visual metaphor for the times, capturing the collective feeling of isolation that has permeated the public consciousness. This collectible embodies the silent struggle with the self, a theme that resonates deeply within the human psyche. It is a powerful piece within the lexicon of street pop and graffiti artwork. KAWS: A Maestro of Modern Melancholy KAWS, also known as Brian Donnelly, has long been recognized for his acute sense of the zeitgeist, and with "Separated" in black, he continues to showcase his adeptness at melding street art's accessibility with fine art's contemplative nature. The figure's black colorway accentuates its silhouette, lending the work an air of sophistication and gravitas. The starkness of the color serves to underline the introspection and sorrow inherent in the pose, inviting viewers to reflect on their personal experiences of separation or contemplation. "Separated" is not just an object of aesthetic value; it is a narrative piece that tells the story of the silent battles we face, the moments of introspection that are felt but often go unseen. KAWS has captured a universal experience, distilled it into a singular form, and, in doing so, has created a collectible that speaks volumes. Collectibility and Cultural Commentary As a collectible, "Separated" is highly coveted for its aesthetic and emotional appeal and commentary on the nature of street art and pop culture. Each piece, while uniform in production, is unique in the eyes of the collector, standing as a significant symbol of the era in which it was created. The vinyl's tactile nature, its form's visual impact, and its pose's emotional resonance all contribute to its status as a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts of KAWS' work. The piece is a narrative in three dimensions, a sculpture that tells a story of universal human experiences, such as melancholy, contemplation, and the need for connection. It is a reflection on the state of contemporary society, a commentary that is at once personal and public, much like the nature of street art itself. "Separated" as a Mirror to the Soul "Separated" in black is more than a collectible; it is a mirror to the soul, a reflection of the times we live in and the emotions we navigate. In the world of street pop art and graffiti artwork, KAWS continues to lead with a vision that is at once reflective and revolutionary. This piece, in particular, stands as a beacon of modern art. This collectible is bound to endure as a significant representation of KAWS' artistic legacy and the emotional landscape of our times.

Natural Yellowing to Margins. "This is one of my favorite paintings I created years back. Bringing it back to life over 10 years later with these new materials has been a lot of fun. I almost feel like a kid again playing with these neon sharpies florescent paint pens and shining the black light on the print as I work. Once the light is off, these tags hide in plain sight. It's a little silly, but it does feel a bit magical. Each print is unique and one of a kind. I spent time with each one of these, enjoying the process." -Saber This particular piece, the "Last stop Black Light Giclee Print," is described as a favorite of Saber, revived with the employment of new materials. This process seems to have given the artist a rejuvenating, almost childlike joy. Saber’s approach, integrating neon sharpies and fluorescent paint pens, infuses the work with a playful yet elusive quality, where the artfully reveals itself only under the glow of a black light. This feature adds an interactive dimension to the piece. The prints' unique characteristic of hiding 'tags' in plain sight when not illuminated speaks to the clandestine nature of graffiti culture. Limited to a series of 35, each print has been signed and numbered, indicating a high level of exclusivity and collectibility. The detail of natural yellowing around the margins of the hand-deckled fine art paper contributes to the authenticity of each piece, suggesting a deliberate embrace of the natural aging process and reflecting the often ephemeral nature of street art. The size of the artwork, 23x17.5 inches, provides a generous canvas for Saber’s vibrant work, allowing the intricate details and the contrast between the fluorescent and the dark elements to stand out. The production of the piece in 2023 marks it as a contemporary artifact of street art's ongoing evolution, encapsulating both the history and the current state of the movement. Saber’s connection and time spent on each print ensures that while the edition is limited, no two pieces are exactly alike, each bearing the unique touch of the artist’s hand.

PP Printers Proof 2020 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x18 Archival Pigment Fine Art Denial's "Sorry Is Not Enough": A Striking Statement in Street Pop Art "Sorry Is Not Enough," a potent piece by the artist Denial, whose real name is Daniel Bombardier, encapsulates a powerful socio-political message within the framework of street pop art and graffiti artwork.

As a Printer's Proof (PP) from 2020, it has a special place in the artist's portfolio, denoting a limited run personally overseen and marked by Denial himself. The piece's dimensions, an impactful 18x18 inches, provide a square canvas that compels the observer to confront the message head-on. The artwork is notable not only for its technical specifications but for its thematic boldness. It features a stylized depiction typical of Denial's work, with solid and contrasting colors and an iconic and enigmatic central figure. The text "Sorry Is Not Enough" boldly underscores the visual, serving as both a caption and a statement that amplifies the emotional resonance of the image. In street pop art, such directness is not uncommon; it's a genre that often seeks to communicate messages succinctly and powerfully, cutting through the noise to reach its audience. The Role of Printer's Proofs in Contemporary Street Art Printer's Proofs are traditionally part of an edition outside the regular numbered series, typically reserved for the artist's personal use. Their rarity and the artist's direct involvement in their creation often make them more valuable and sought after by collectors. Denial's "Sorry Is Not Enough" PP joins this tradition, allowing collectors to own a piece that comes directly from the artist's hand. The PP mark and Denial's signature confirm its authenticity and the print's status as a genuine piece of his oeuvre. In "Sorry Is Not Enough," Denial employs archival pigment in creating the fine art print, ensuring the longevity of the piece and the stability of its vibrant colors over time. Archival pigments are resistant to the fading and deterioration that often plague art materials, making them a favored choice for works meant to stand the test of time. This attention to longevity is a testament to the merging of street art's immediacy and the enduring nature of fine art. Street Pop Art as a Conduit for Social Commentary Denial's work, particularly this print, exemplifies street pop art's unique ability to serve as a conduit for social commentary. By leveraging the visual language of pop art—bold graphics, explicit imagery, and stark text—artists can communicate complex messages quickly and effectively. This piece, with its evocative facial expression and the simplicity of its accompanying text, invites reflection on the current societal discourse, encouraging the viewer to ponder the depth and sincerity behind apologies and the actions that necessitate them. "Sorry Is Not Enough" is a visual dialogue on accountability and the need for substantial action beyond mere words. This message is particularly resonant in an era where public figures and institutions are often called upon to address their wrongdoings. Denial's print captures this zeitgeist, challenging the viewer to consider what meaningful reparation might look like. In conclusion, "Sorry Is Not Enough" by Denial is a compelling example of how street pop art and graffiti artwork can encapsulate and communicate powerful sentiments. This piece not only reflects Denial's skill as an artist but also embodies the potential of street pop art to engage with and influence public discourse. Through his work, Denial continues to contribute to the rich tapestry of contemporary art, using his platform to provoke thought and inspire change.

Depression & Depressed Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Reflecting Emotional Turmoil: Depression in Street Pop Art and Graffiti

Depression, a topic that has long been a subject of artistic exploration, finds a poignant and powerful expression in street pop art and graffiti. In this realm, artists have leveraged the public canvas to depict the struggles, emotions, and experiences associated with depression, creating artworks that resonate deeply with viewers. This form of artistic expression serves not only as a catharsis for the artists but also as a means to raise awareness about mental health issues, breaking down stigmas and fostering a dialogue about an often misunderstood condition.

Depression in Street Art: A Tool for Awareness and Empathy

Street art and graffiti have always been mediums for social commentary and personal expression. Artists dealing with depression often use these platforms to communicate their inner turmoil and to reach out to others who may be undergoing similar experiences. Through their art, they depict the various facets of depression, from feelings of isolation and despair to the search for hope and understanding. The use of public spaces for such artworks makes the topic more visible, challenging the societal tendencies to overlook or stigmatize mental health issues. Furthermore, these pieces often become sites of communal interaction, where viewers can reflect upon their own experiences with depression or gain insights into the struggles faced by others.

Visual Representation of Depression in Graffiti Art

The visual representation of depression in graffiti art often involves a stark, impactful use of imagery and color. Artists may employ monochromatic schemes or subdued palettes to convey feelings of sadness and emptiness, while others use contrasting bright colors to represent the emotional turmoil and complexity surrounding depression. Symbolism is a common tool, with motifs such as broken figures, obscured faces, or elements of nature in decay being used to embody aspects of mental suffering and despair. These visual elements work together to create a powerful narrative that can be both deeply personal and universally relatable, bridging the gap between the artist and the viewer.

Notable Artists and Their Contributions to the Theme of Depression

Several street artists have gained recognition for their works that focus on depression and mental health. These artists bring their personal experiences and perspectives to their art, creating pieces that are both intimate and impactful. For example, some artists have used their work to chronicle their journeys through depression, employing a series of murals or installations that reflect different stages of their experience. Others have focused on creating singular, striking pieces that capture a specific emotion or moment related to their struggles. These artworks not only serve as a means of personal expression but also contribute to the broader conversation about mental health, encouraging empathy, understanding, and support for those affected by depression. The exploration of depression in street pop art and graffiti is a poignant reminder of the power of art to express, communicate, and connect. Through their vivid and often visceral depictions of mental health struggles, artists create a space for dialogue and understanding, contributing to a greater awareness of depression and its impact on individuals and society. Their works stand as testaments to both the pain of mental illness and the resilience of the human spirit, offering hope and solidarity to those who encounter them.
