We challenged ourselves to create the greatest and most efficient use of one recycled spray paint can. The flower bloomed naturally. This series is partially about us returning to our roots. When we started cutting these flowers we wouldn’t paint them as we often do now. We’ve been venturing into this raw approach with some of our other work. It feels right to introduce it with this series as well.The can popping process always produces a unique pattern inside the can because as the marble moves around inside it leaves its tracks on the wet paint. Each flower is cut by hand and no two flowers are exactly alike. Each one is completely unique. And every box we shipped had a custom paint job." - Canlove

Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine HPM Hand Made Limited Edition Mixed Media, Reclaimed Items, Spray Can Sculpture Artwork by graffiti street artist modern pop artist Eddie Colla. 2020 Signed & Numbered HPM Made & Printed Limited Edition of 30 Spray Paint Can Sculpture Artwork. These Are Art Pieces, They Are Not Medical Devices. "I originally made these fake inhalation vaccines as props for two installations I did with D Young V, Epilogue, and Memento Mori. The installations revolved around apocalyptic possibilities. These recycled Spray paint cans were meant to be discarded inhalation vaccines that the World Health Organization had distributed during a global pandemic. The labels contain information about application dosage and active ingredients. I did a lot of research regarding previous pandemics, such as H1N1 (bird flu). The idea was to create an artifact as real as possible to resemble a failed attempt to contain a global pandemic." Eddie Colla Artistic Representation of Global Pandemics Eddie Colla's "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" mixed media artworks reflect a hauntingly prescient take on global health crises through the lens of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. This limited edition series, consisting of only 30 signed and numbered pieces, incorporates reclaimed items and spray paint cans to form sculptures that stand as poignant artifacts of apocalyptic possibilities. Created as part of two installations with fellow artist D Young V, "Epilogue" and "Memento Mori," Colla's sculptures were designed to represent discarded inhalation vaccines distributed by the World Health Organization during a fictional global pandemic. These installations explored themes of human vulnerability, societal collapse, and the interventions that come into play during such catastrophic events. The sculptures themselves, crafted to mimic the appearance and informational detail of real medical devices, resonate with the realism and urgency of a world grappling with the threat of pandemics. Colla's meticulous research into previous health crises, such as H1N1, informed the creation of this spray can sculpture. The labels on each canister are detailed with application dosage and active ingredients, contributing to the authentic feel of the pieces. This attention to detail not only enhances the visual impact of the sculptures but also embeds a narrative that ties them to the real-world context of public health emergencies. Cultural Commentary through Mixed Media The "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" sculptures starkly comment on the intersection of art, science, and societal response to global health challenges. By using reclaimed spray paint cans, Colla repurposes the mundane and aligns his work with the ethos of recycling and sustainability. These themes are increasingly relevant in contemporary discourse. These sculptures transform the spray can, a ubiquitous tool in street art, into a vessel of deeper meaning, reflecting on the throwaway culture and the implications of medical waste. This body of work also questions the efficacy and accessibility of healthcare interventions, highlighting the disparity between the intended purpose of medical devices and their actual implementation in crisis scenarios. Colla's sculptures suggest a history of use and urgency when these objects were vital to survival. The limited edition nature of these pieces emphasizes their uniqueness as artworks while alluding to the scarcity of resources that can occur in times of crisis. Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork's Evocative Power Eddie Colla's contribution to Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork is characterized by his ability to evoke robust responses through objects that bridge art and reality. His sculptures are not passive objects; they are conversation starters that prompt viewers to think critically about the state of the world and our responses to impending dangers. In the tradition of street art, these works are accessible yet complex, visually striking yet laden with meaning. The "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" series underscores the evocative power of street pop art and graffiti to comment on and engage with current events. Through this series, Colla extends the narrative capabilities of street art beyond the walls and into the three-dimensional realm, offering a tangible connection to the issues that permeate our collective consciousness. In essence, Eddie Colla's "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" sculptures embody the innovative and reflective qualities of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. By blending art with societal critique elements, Colla captures the imagination and ignites discourse, cementing his role as an artist who observes and participates in the broader conversations of our time. His work is a reminder of art's impact on interpreting, understanding, and questioning the world around us.

Block Boys- Blok Boy- Teal Blue Red Flowers Original Epoxy Sculpture Artwork by graffiti street artist modern pop artist Devin James. 2021 Signed COA Lego Sculpture Artwork Size 6x11 Block Boys with Red Flower in Teal Blue, Original Blok Boy Lego Man. The Aesthetic Fusion in Blok Boy Devin James, a renowned figure in the world of street pop art and graffiti artwork, presents a striking addition to the art scene with "Boys- Blok Boy- Teal Blue Red Flowers," an original epoxy sculpture artwork that resonates deeply with the playful yet reflective essence of modern pop art. This piece, signed and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, stands out with its bold dimensions of 6x11 inches. The "Blok Boy" Lego Man sculpture encapsulates the whimsical nature of childhood toys while embedding the sophisticated depth of contemporary art. Crafted in 2021, this sculpture artfully merges the iconic simplicity of the Lego form with the complexity of human nature, signifying a juxtaposition that street pop art so often seeks to explore. The teal blue hue of the piece is not merely a choice of color but a narrative vehicle, conveying a sense of tranquility and depth akin to the ocean. Within this serene expanse, bursts of red—manifested as flowers—introduce a dynamic element of contrast, symbolizing passion, vibrancy, and life. Incorporating these red flowers disrupts the monochrome and injects a layer of emotional intensity into the sculpture, echoing the human experiences of conflict, beauty, and growth. The choice of epoxy as the medium for "Boys- Blok Boy" is deliberate, allowing for a luminous finish that gives the artwork an almost lifelike presence. The clarity of the material captures and plays with light, giving the sculpture an ever-changing appearance that depends on its environmental context. In this way, the artwork reflects street pop art's dynamic and evolving nature, which is inherently responsive to its surroundings. Symbolism in Street Pop Art The "Blok Boy" serves as a canvas upon which Devin James has masterfully illustrated themes of nostalgia and modernity. The Lego figure, a staple in the pantheon of childhood playthings, is repurposed here as an emblem of innocence and creativity. Yet, the transformation of this toy into a piece of high art indicates a loss of innocence and a bridge to the complexities of adulthood. This is the essence of street pop art—taking the familiar and everyday objects and elevating them to express deeper societal narratives. The interplay of the teal blue with the red flowers within "Blok Boy" also speaks to the graffiti artwork tradition of using vibrant visuals to make bold statements. Graffiti artists have long used the urban landscape as their canvas, often employing stark color contrasts to highlight their messages. Devin James brings this principle into the three-dimensional realm, using color to draw the viewer into a dialogue with the piece. Reflection of the Artist in the Artwork Beyond the aesthetic and symbolic qualities of the sculpture, "Boys- Blok Boy- Teal Blue Red Flowers" is also a reflection of Devin James himself. Known for his distinctive style that marries street art with a polished modern pop art aesthetic, James creates works that are both accessible and profound. His signature lies in his ability to imbue his pieces with layers of meaning, often prompting the viewer to reflect on the intersection of youth and the adult world, playfulness and seriousness, simplicity, and complexity. In this sculpture, James' own experiences and perspectives are distilled into the form of the "Blok Boy." The artwork becomes a conversation piece, prompting discussions about the role of art in public spaces, the commodification of childhood memories, and the potential of street art to infiltrate and enhance the world of fine art. James continues to challenge and redefine the boundaries of street pop art and graffiti artwork through this piece. "Boys- Blok Boy- Teal Blue Red Flowers" is a testament to the evolving narrative of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Through his skillful manipulation of form, color, and medium, Devin James presents a sculpture that is both a playful nod to childhood and a profound commentary on the human condition. The artwork is a vibrant fusion of toy and totem, a physical manifestation of the ethos of street pop art—rooted in the urban yet reaching towards the universal.
