    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Protect The Blue Planet- Large Format Serigraph Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Protect The Blue Planet- Large Format Limited Edition Hand Pulled 2-Color Serigraph Print on 100% Cotton Coventry Rag Paper by Shepard Fairey Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2022 Signed & Numbered Hand Deckled 30 x 41 inches Serigraph on Coventry Rag, 100% cotton custom archival paper Hand-deckled edges Limited Edition of 75 Signed + Numbered Printed by Obey Giant "Protect The Blue Planet" stands as a testament to Shepard Fairey's dedication to using his art as a vehicle for environmental advocacy, fusing the worlds of pop art, street art, and graffiti art. This limited edition, hand-pulled 2-color serigraph, reveals the intricate relationship between humanity and our environment. Imprinted on 100% cotton Coventry Rag paper, the choice of material underpins Fairey’s commitment to sustainable artistry. The dimensionality of the piece, 30 x 41 inches, lends itself to an immersive viewing experience, accentuated further by its hand-deckled edges, which bring a tactile, organic touch, reminiscent of the raw edges of street posters. In partnering with the PangeaSeed Foundation to release this work for Earth Month, Fairey encapsulates the pressing environmental concerns of the modern era. Central to the piece is the depiction of an endangered North Atlantic right whale that exudes a mandala with the earth cradled within. This mandala, rooted in various cultural traditions, signifies harmony, unity, and the interconnectivity of the planet's ecosystems. The floral ornaments within it blossom as symbols of flourishing harmony, but the contrasting inclusion of flames starkly reminds viewers of the ever-looming threat of global warming. The text - "Protect the Blue Planet" and "One Ocean-One People" - along with the chosen blue palette, draws attention to the inextricable bond between thriving oceans and a sustainable world. As a renowned figure in the street art community, Fairey's work has always pushed boundaries, and with "Protect The Blue Planet", he once again blurs the lines between artistic expression, activism, and social responsibility, reminding the world of its role in safeguarding the planet. "To celebrate Earth Month, in collaboration with PangeaSeed Foundation, I’m pleased to release, “Protect The Blue Planet” which features an endangered North Atlantic right whale emanating a mandala with the earth as its focal point. In several cultures, the mandala represents harmony, unity, and wholeness, all of which are important concepts when considering the interconnected nature of the planet’s ecosystems, people, and species. The mandala features floral ornaments symbolizing harmony in bloom, but also flames as a reminder of the perils of global warming. The “Protect the Blue Planet” and “One Ocean-One People” text within the artwork and the blue color palette serve to emphasize the crucial connection between healthy oceans and a healthy planet." – Shepard

Nature

Nature can be a powerful and versatile subject in graffiti street pop art. Artists can use natural elements such as trees, flowers, and animals to create stunning murals that reflect their connection to the environment and their appreciation for the beauty of the natural world. One popular approach to incorporating nature into graffiti street pop art is to create large-scale murals that depict realistic or stylized versions of natural subjects. For example, an artist might paint a towering tree that stretches across an entire wall, or a brightly colored bird that appears to be taking flight. These types of murals can be incredibly impactful, as they capture the majesty and wonder of the natural world in a way that is both awe-inspiring and accessible to viewers. Another approach is to use natural elements as part of a larger composition. For example, an artist might incorporate leaves or vines into a more abstract design, using them as a way to add texture, color, and depth to the piece. This can create a dynamic and visually compelling work of art that is both abstract and organic. Finally, some artists use nature as a way to make political or social statements. For example, an artist might create a mural that depicts an endangered animal or a tree that has been cut down, drawing attention to the impacts of human activities on the environment. This type of art can be a powerful way to raise awareness and inspire action on environmental issues. Nature is a rich and endlessly inspiring subject for graffiti street pop art. By incorporating natural elements into their work, artists can create beautiful and thought-provoking pieces that connect viewers to the environment and encourage them to appreciate and protect the natural world.
