    Nawer Unforeseen Archival Print by Nawer

    Unforeseen Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Nawer Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Perfection is what haunts me. It beguiles my imagination and disturbs my sleep. It introduces a dissonance into my perception of reality. The worst thing about perfection is that it is unattainable and that I will never achieve it. The best you can do is trying to approach it. For that reason beyond perfection is an attempt at escaping it; taking a look beyond it and immersing yourself in the space other than this possessed by the unattainable. This is where I was trying to find the matter and inspiration for the series. I employed color and space. My aim was to help the recipients find depth because depth allows escaping perfection." - Nawer

Printed on 290gsm Moab fine art paper, this piece utilizes archival pigment, ensuring that the vivid colors and delicate shading remain as intended for years. Technical Brilliance in Modern Artwork The choice of Moab fine art paper tells of Joncas' commitment to quality. Known for its substantial feel and ability to render sharp, accurate colors, the paper is the perfect medium for "Day Dream," which relies heavily on subtle gradations of tone and color to achieve its dream-like quality.

Measuring 17x12 inches, the artwork offers a sizeable canvas that allows viewers to immerse themselves in the serene world Joncas has created. The Narrative Power of Joncas' Art The "Day Dream" narrative is as striking as its visual composition. The image of a woman in repose, intertwined with vibrant red poppies, suggests a narrative of escapism and serenity. Her peaceful expression allows viewers to project their longing or contentment onto the scene. This personal connection is a fundamental aspect of Street Pop Art, where public accessibility and emotional engagement with the artwork are paramount. Joncas captures this spirit by creating a visual story that is both unique and universal.

It is an artwork that encapsulates pop art's evolving nature, embracing its roots in mass culture and its potential for profound personal expression.

  • Delorean Giclee Print by Kilian Eng (DW Design)

    Kilian Eng (DW Design) Delorean Giclee Print by Kilian Eng (DW Design)

    Delorean Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Print on Photo Rag Bright White Paper by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Kilian Eng (DW Design). 2013 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition Print on paper (Photo Rag Bright White 310 gsm) 17 H x 24 W inch. Swedish artist Kilian Eng (DW Design) has a unique style and visual language that is sometimes described as retro-futuristic. Eng illustrates and animates images and art prints that feel dreamlike and evoke curiosity, like this Delorean image, obviously inspired by the Back to the Future movies. "I’m very interested in creating environments in my work. I’m fascinated by architecture - ancient, futuristic, fantastic - so I often incorporate buildings or structures. The characters that inhabit the pictures are dropped in these unexpected surroundings." -Kilian Eng Revving Through Time: Kilian Eng's Retro-Futuristic Delorean In the dynamic world of pop culture art, few images are as evocative of the spirit of adventure and the aesthetics of retro-futurism as the Delorean car. The iconic vehicle, etched into the collective memory of the 80s and beyond, finds new life in the work of Swedish artist Kilian Eng. Known professionally as DW Design, Eng's limited edition Giclee print on Photo Rag Bright White Paper breathes a unique blend of nostalgia and futuristic fantasy into the subject. Kilian Eng, born in Sweden, stands out for his distinctive style that combines elements of street pop art and graffiti artwork, though his work leans more towards illustration with a heavy influence from the fantastical and science fiction elements. His Delorean artwork, a signed and numbered limited edition print from 2013, exemplifies this style perfectly. Measuring 17 by 24 inches and printed on Photo Rag Bright White 310 gsm paper, the piece showcases Eng's commitment to quality and his passion for creating immersive environments within his works. Dreamlike Visions: The Architecture of Time in Eng's Work Eng has a well-documented fascination with architecture, which serves as the structural backbone for many of his pieces. His Delorean art print is no exception. The vehicle is set against a dreamlike backdrop that merges ancient and futuristic sensibilities, a hallmark of Eng's work. This setting is not just a passive background; it's an integral part of the narrative that Eng crafts through his art. The Delorean, synonymous with time travel in the 'Back to the Future' franchise, is depicted amidst a landscape that feels both familiar and otherworldly, embodying the convergence of past, present, and future. The artist's inclination to place characters — or in this case, iconic cars — within unexpected surroundings aligns with the ethos of graffiti artwork, where the surprise element and the boldness of the presentation are key. In Eng's Delorean print, the car takes center stage, its familiar form a stark contrast to the alien landscape, which could be a scene straight out of a distant planet or parallel universe. Eng's Visual Language: A Portal to Retro-Futuristic Exploration Kilian Eng's artistic language speaks of curiosity and exploration, two themes deeply embedded in the concept of the Delorean. The car, a symbol of technological innovation and the wild possibilities of time travel, is a fitting subject for Eng's exploration of space and environment. The choice of the Delorean, particularly within the context of a limited edition print, also speaks to the artist's understanding of pop culture's ephemeral yet impactful nature. The print itself, with its meticulous attention to detail and color, mirrors the quality one would expect from a graffiti artwork masterpiece. While Eng's work is not painted on a wall or a train car, it carries the same spirit of street pop art — it's accessible, it's for the people, and it carries a message. The message here is one of wonder, the same kind of wonder that street art aims to evoke in passersby. Kilian Eng's Delorean is not just a print; it's a window into the kind of retro-futuristic world that only exists in the collective dreams of those who grew up with the 'Back to the Future' movies as a touchstone. It's a testament to the enduring appeal of the Delorean as an icon, not just of a movie franchise, but of an era where cars were more than just vehicles — they were the keys to adventure, the vessels for voyages of the imagination. Eng's print captures this spirit in a way that both honors and transcends the original inspiration, making it a significant piece in the realm of street pop art and graffiti artwork.

Purple

Exploring Purple's Palette in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Presence of Purple in Urban Art

Purple, historically a color of nobility and mystery, has permeated the urban landscape through the mediums of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Its use injects a sense of the regal and the enigmatic into the often-gritty context of the city's walls. This hue, which can range from the gentlest lavenders to the deepest violets, carries with it a versatility that is unmatched. It is as much at home in the flamboyant splashes of pop art as it is in the shadowed nuances of street art, commanding attention and provoking thought in equal measure.

Techniques and Textures: Working with Purple

When it comes to technique, purple presents unique opportunities for the artist. It can be a challenging color to work with due to its visual weight, but when handled with skill, it can add a dramatic flair or a subtle undertone to a piece. The texture of purple paint can affect its interaction with light, with glossier finishes bringing a vibrancy to the color, while matte finishes lend it a more subdued and mysterious character. In aerosol form, purple can be sprayed lightly for a misty effect or layered for richness and depth.

Cultural Significance and Emotional Depth of Purple

Purple's cultural significance is as rich as its hue. It is a color that has been used to signify power, spirituality, and creativity. In street pop art and graffiti, purple can symbolize the countercultural and the alternative, often used to represent subversive ideas or to mark the presence of the artist's unique voice. Emotionally, purple is a color that can evoke feelings of nostalgia and melancholy, as well as luxury and ambition. Its duality is its strength, enabling artists to play with a spectrum of themes from the introspective to the exuberant.

Composition and Contrast: The Utility of Purple

In terms of composition, purple's utility lies in its ability to complement or contrast a wide range of colors. It can cool down the warmth of yellows and oranges or add depth to a palette of blues and greens. In the context of street pop and graffiti art, purple often serves as a focal color, drawing in the eye and providing a counterpoint to the surrounding hues. Its placement within an artwork can guide the viewer's gaze, leading them through the visual narrative the artist has crafted.

Purple in Symbolism and Urban Expression

Purple's symbolism in urban art is multifaceted. It can stand as a symbol of the avant-garde, a beacon of innovation and creative risk-taking. In graffiti, purple can be the color of the outsider, marking territory and asserting identity in a way that other colors may not. It has the power to transform a space, to elevate it from the mundane to the extraordinary, and to infuse a sense of the otherworldly into the concrete reality of the urban environment.

Future Outlook: Purple's Evolving Role in Street Art

Looking toward the future, purple is poised to continue its evolution in the realm of street pop art and graffiti. As new pigments are developed and new techniques are embraced, the potential for purple to convey an even wider array of messages and emotions is vast. It is a color that can adapt to the changing cultural climate, reflecting the zeitgeist in its shades and tints. Whether it is used to provoke, to soothe, or to mystify, purple remains a powerful tool in the artist's palette, one that captures the complexity of the human experience against the canvas of the cityscape. In the dynamic world of street pop art and graffiti, purple stands out for its depth and complexity. It is a color that refuses to be ignored, wrapping viewers in its embrace and challenging them to explore the meanings it holds. Through the creative visions of urban artists, purple will continue to leave its mark on the streets, an enduring testament to the power of color in public art.
