  • What Goes Up Original Spray Paint Acrylic Painting by Meggs What Goes Up Original Spray Paint Acrylic Painting by Meggs

    Meggs What Goes Up Original Spray Paint Acrylic Painting by Meggs

    What Goes Up Original Spray Paint Acrylic Painting by Meggs One of a Kind Artwork on Canvas with Custom Reclaimed Wood Frame by Street Art Pop Artist. 2014 Signed Acrylic & Spray Paint Painting Original Canvas in Artist Hand Made Reclaimed Wood Frame Artwork Size 49x49. From Spoiled Rotten Show. Exploring the Dynamic Essence of Meggs' "What Goes Up" "What Goes Up" is an original acrylic and spray paint painting by the acclaimed street pop artist Meggs that encapsulates the dynamism and energy of his work. Created in 2014, this artwork reflects Meggs' signature style, which harmoniously blends street art's rawness with pop art's vividness. This one-of-a-kind artwork is a statement piece and a storytelling canvas that explores themes prevalent in Meggs' oeuvre, such as the constant struggle between opposing forces and the transient nature of success and failure. The painting measures 46x46 inches and is housed in a custom reclaimed wood frame handcrafted by the artist. Reclaimed wood adds an eco-conscious dimension to the artwork, reinforcing Meggs' interest in sustainability and the repurposing of materials. This choice of framing also accentuates the urban and gritty feel of the painting, resonating with the street art tradition of using found objects and spaces. Artistic Techniques and Visual Impact in "What Goes Up" Meggs employs acrylic and spray paint in "What Goes Up," showcasing his adeptness at using traditional and non-traditional media. The acrylic provides depth and texture, while the spray paint offers a sense of immediacy and spontaneity intrinsic to graffiti artwork. The painting is a cacophony of colors, bursting forth from a central point, suggesting an explosion of energy and creativity. The colors are not just randomly splashed across the canvas; they are meticulously layered to create a visual impact that is both chaotic and controlled. The artwork features a skull motif, a recurring element in Meggs' art, which often symbolizes the transient nature of human existence and the cyclical nature of life. However, in "What Goes Up," the skull is juxtaposed with vibrant colors and comic-style exclamations, which could be interpreted as a commentary on the superficiality of popular culture and the fleeting nature of fame and success. The skull seems to be disintegrating or exploding into an array of colors and shapes, a powerful visual metaphor for the inevitable downfall that follows a rise to the top. Cultural Commentary and the Essence of Street Pop Art The painting's title, "What Goes Up," hints at the adage "what goes up must come down," suggesting a narrative of ascent and descent. Meggs often infuses his Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork with philosophical musings and critical observations of society. The work symbolizes the cyclical patterns of life and can be seen as a reflection of the transient nature of success or the hubris that often precedes a fall. The artist's use of text in the painting, rendered in a comic book style, adds a layer of communication with the viewer, inviting them to ponder the deeper meanings behind the vibrant facade. The piece is a testament to the artist's ability to navigate the space between gallery and street art, making it accessible to a diverse audience. The inclusivity of street art is evident in Meggs' work, where the public space becomes a canvas for dialogue, and the art becomes a part of the everyday urban landscape. "What Goes Up" is not just a visual spectacle but also a piece of cultural commentary, encapsulating the ethos of street art and its role in contemporary discourse. "What Goes Up" is a prime example of Meggs' impact on the field of street art and his contribution to the broader pop art movement. The painting manifests the artist's dedication to craft, concept, and commentary. Through the integration of various artistic techniques and the strategic use of reclaimed materials, Meggs has created an artwork that is both a visual feast and a conceptual powerhouse. The significance of Meggs' work lies in its ability to resonate with viewers on multiple levels. This work can be appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and ability to evoke emotion and provoke thought. As a piece of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, "What Goes Up" embodies the spirit of this genre, which continues to push the boundaries of art and its place in society. It remains a poignant piece within Meggs' body of work and within the larger conversation of contemporary art.

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

  • Ledger Joker Construction Street Sign Painting by RD-357 Real Deal

    RD-357 Real Deal Ledger Joker Construction Street Sign Painting by RD-357 Real Deal

    Heath Ledger Joker Construction Zone Original Street Sign Painting by RD-357 Real Deal One of a Kind Artwork on Real Metal NYC New York Construction Zone No Trespassing Street Sign by Graffiti Art Pop Artist. 2012 Signed Mixed Media Acrylic & Spray Paint on Reclaimed NYC New York Construction Zone No Trespassing Sign Painting Original Artwork Size 24x24 Batman Villian Played by Heath Ledger in the Movie as Joker Looking at the Viewer. RD Tag in Rust Red. RD-357's Heath Ledger Joker: A Fusion of Street Pop Art and Iconography The Heath Ledger Joker Construction Zone original street sign painting by RD-357, also known as Real Deal, encapsulates the essence of street pop art through its provocative use of public signage repurposed for artistic expression. Created in 2012, this mixed media acrylic and spray paint artwork transforms a New York City construction zone 'No Trespassing' sign into a canvas, depicting the iconic Batman villain played by Heath Ledger in a way that both challenges and captivates the viewer. Contextualizing RD-357's Artistic Approach RD-357, an artist whose real name remains elusive in the true spirit of street art anonymity, is known for his gritty interpretations of pop culture figures on unconventional canvases. This particular artwork measures 24x24 inches and is a testament to street art's versatility, pushing beyond traditional boundaries. RD-357 draws upon the anarchic spirit of the Joker, using a symbol of law and order – a construction sign – to present an image of chaos and rebellion. The irony is palpable; the sign, which once stood as a warning against unauthorized entry, now invites viewers to engage with the art in a personal, almost aggressive manner. Symbolism and Impact in RD-357's Joker Artwork This piece is not just a portrait; it is a statement. By choosing Heath Ledger's Joker, RD-357 taps into the collective consciousness of a society fascinated by the anti-hero archetype. Ledger's portrayal of the Joker was posthumously celebrated, and his death in 2008 left a cultural imprint that RD-357 leverages in this artwork. The juxtaposition of the Joker’s figure against the backdrop of a New York construction sign speaks volumes about the chaotic undercurrents within the perceived order of urban life. The use of mixed media, with acrylic and spray paint, highlights street art's raw, visceral nature, while also paying homage to the vibrancy of pop art. The viewer is confronted with the Joker's gaze, which, coupled with the bright warning colors of the construction sign, creates an unsettling yet magnetic presence. This interaction compels the audience to contemplate the layers of meaning behind the piece – from transforming public property into a medium for personal expression to the dialogue between art and spectator that challenges societal norms and the very definition of public space. In conclusion, RD-357's Heath Ledger Joker on a New York City construction sign is an outstanding example of how street pop art can merge cultural iconography with subversive messaging. Through this piece, the artist immortalizes a beloved film character and raises questions about authority, ownership, and the role of art in public discourse. The artwork remains a one-of-a-kind testament to the power of graffiti art to redefine spaces and provoke thought long after the paint has dried.

  • Worlds Collide Part II Original Oil Mixed Media Reclaimed Painting by Dave Pollot Worlds Collide Part II Original Oil Mixed Media Reclaimed Painting by Dave Pollot

    Dave Pollot Worlds Collide Part II Original Oil Mixed Media Reclaimed Painting by Dave Pollot

    Worlds Collide Part II Original Oil Mixed Media Reclaimed Painting by Dave Pollot is One-of-a-Kind Artwork by Street Art Pop Artist. 2023 Signed Oil Painting on Vintage Reclaimed Upcycled Painting Diptych Original Artwork Size 12x9 (UFO) & 17.5x15.5 (Beach) of a UFO Laser Blasting a Seagul Bird On The Beach Intersection of Modernity and Tradition in "Worlds Collide Part II" "Worlds Collide Part II" is a striking representation of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, reflecting a seamless blend of traditional artistic methods with the contemporary edge of pop culture. The artist behind this compelling piece has employed oil painting, a classic medium, and infused it with modern thematic elements, presenting a narrative that bridges the ordinary with the otherworldly. The diptych format, hinged together to form a single story, roots the work in historical art traditions, while the subject matter – a UFO engaging with a seagull on a beach – introduces a narrative that is unapologetically current and provocative. This original mixed-media artwork encapsulates the vivacity of street art by utilizing reclaimed and upcycled canvases. Repurposing these materials not only gives them a new lease on life but also pays homage to the ethos of street art, which often sees beauty in the overlooked and discarded. Combining the UFO and beach scenes provokes the viewer to contemplate the juxtapositions within our world – blending the familiar with the very unfamiliar. The artist's signature, marked in 2023, signals the creation of a piece deeply embedded in the present. This one-of-a-kind artwork, measuring 12x9 inches for the 'UFO' panel and 17.5x15.5 inches for the 'Beach' panel, captures the essence of pop art's interaction with the audience. It does not merely portray a scene but also calls into question the boundaries of reality and fiction, urging a reflection on our environment and the unexpected events that could unfold within it. The Narrative of Artistic Transformation in Reclaimed Art Through "Worlds Collide Part II," the artist exemplifies the transformative power of art. By breathing new life into vintage canvases, the artwork becomes a narrative of reinvention and the cyclical nature of art itself. The choice of a reclaimed painting as the medium is a statement about the potential for transformation – a core principle within Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. It is a visual and conceptual rebirth, where the past and the present amalgamate to create something entirely new and thought-provoking. The beach scene, typically a symbol of tranquility and nature's beauty, is disrupted by the fantastical invasion of a UFO, which starkly contrasts the serene backdrop. This decision illustrates the pop artist's flair for integrating science fiction elements into everyday settings, creating a space where different worlds can interact unexpectedly. The result is an art piece that is a testament to the imagination and the artist's power to challenge our perceptions of the normal and the known. In creating "Worlds Collide Part II," the artist presents an alternate reality and challenges the viewer to consider the impact of such an event. The artwork becomes a portal to a story much larger than the canvas it occupies, inviting us to ponder the endless possibilities that exist beyond our own experiences. Embracing the Ethos of Street Pop and Graffiti Art "Worlds Collide Part II" vividly embodies the principles of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. The art piece itself is a confluence of historical techniques and modern cultural expressions, symbolizing art's fluidity and ever-evolving nature. By combining disparate elements – a traditional beach landscape and a symbol of futuristic technology – the artwork mirrors the essence of street art and pop art: the merging of various aspects of culture to create both reflective and forward-looking. The artist's innovative approach to the subject matter and medium underscores a broader cultural commentary inherent in street art. It speaks to a world where boundaries are constantly being redrawn and redefined, where art is not confined to galleries but is a part of the living urban landscape. Thus, The painting becomes more than just a visual experience; it is a conversation with the viewer, a dynamic interaction central to the street and pop art experience. Worlds Collide Part II is not just an art piece but a cultural artifact that encapsulates the zeitgeist of our time. It reflects the ever-changing nature of art, the unexpectedness of life, and the beauty that arises when different worlds come together. Through this piece, the artist invites us to witness the creative potential of combining the traditional with the unconventional, the real with the imagined.

    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.

    Non-Volley Zone II Original Acrylic Painting by Dave Pollot One-of-a-kind Artwork on Vintage Canvas Framed by Street Art Pop Artist. 2022 Signed Acrylic on Original Pickleball Paddle Reclaimed Vintage Painting Size 23x18 Including Frame. Framed Ready To Hang In a unique blend of classical artistry and contemporary wit, "Non-Volley Zone II" emerges as a prime example of Dave Pollot's vision, where vintage aesthetics meet modern narratives. This original acrylic painting showcases Pollot's signature style of repurposing thrift art, introducing unexpected modern elements to otherwise traditional canvases. Created in 2022, this work features a charming still life that has been playfully disrupted by the addition of a pickleball paddle, a modern sports reference that Pollot has cleverly incorporated into the scene. At the heart of this piece is Pollot's mastery in combining two seemingly disparate worlds. The artist breathes new life into a reclaimed vintage painting by juxtaposing the timeless beauty of a floral arrangement with the unexpected intrusion of a pickleball paddle lying at the forefront, symbolizing perhaps the collision of past and present or the intrusion of the contemporary into the serene stillness of history. The playful inclusion of the paddle is a nod to his keen eye for pop culture references, making the artwork resonate with a sense of humor and relevance. The canvas size, at a notable 23x18 inches framed, allows viewers to immerse themselves in the textural contrasts and vivid colors that Pollot masterfully preserves and enhances. His work is not merely about altering the old. Still, it is a dialogue between the original artist and himself, creating a layered narrative where every brushstroke is a word in a story that spans generations. "Non-Volley Zone II" is more than just an acrylic painting; it is a one-of-a-kind artwork that showcases Pollot's ability to transform forgotten pieces of art into contemporary conversations. This framed piece, ready to hang, carries the hallmark of Pollot's ingenuity and serves as a testament to the evolving nature of art. Through such pieces, Pollot establishes himself not just within the realm of street and pop art but also as a custodian of the past, repurposing it to speak to the present.

Reclaimed Recycled & Upcycled Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Reclaimed and Upcycled Materials: A Resourceful Revolution in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Recycled Materials in Urban Artistic Expression

Reclaimed and upcycled art mediums have surged in popularity within the street pop art and graffiti art communities, becoming a cornerstone for artists as concerned with sustainability as they are with creativity. These materials, often rescued from the refuse of consumer culture, are transformed and given a second life as part of a new artistic creation. The reuse of materials not only serves a practical purpose but carries a powerful message about consumption, waste, and the potential for regeneration. 

Upcycling in Artistic Techniques and Media

The techniques and media involved in upcycled art are as diverse as the materials. Artists may employ anything from discarded cans and bottles to old signage and defunct technology as their canvases. Repurposing these items often involves deconstructing their original form, followed by a creative reconstruction into something that stands apart from its prior utilitarian purpose. The process is both a physical and a conceptual transformation, which imbues the artwork with layers of meaning and history.

The Aesthetics of Upcycled Art

Aesthetically, upcycled art can range from rough and industrial to sleek and sophisticated, depending on the artist's intentions and the materials used. The inherent textures, colors, and forms of reclaimed items provide a rich tapestry for artists to work with. This resourcefulness in material choice often leads to unique and unexpected visual outcomes, challenging traditional notions of what mediums are appropriate for art-making.

Cultural Impact of Reclaimed Art Media

Culturally, using reclaimed art media in street pop art and graffiti has had a profound impact. It is a form of expression that aligns with the ethos of the street art movement, which often seeks to make powerful statements in accessible ways. By utilizing readily available and often overlooked materials, artists make a statement about resourcefulness and the potential for beauty in the mundane. It also serves as a commentary on environmental issues, urging viewers to consider their daily consumption habits and the lifecycle of the objects they use.

Innovation and Evolution of Upcycled Art Forms

The innovation and evolution of upcycled art forms continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in street pop art and graffiti. Artists are continually finding new methods to incorporate reclaimed materials into their work, exploring the limits of these mediums and the messages they can convey. The practice also reflects a shift towards more conscious art-making, where the impact on the environment is considered alongside the aesthetic value of the piece. Reclaimed and upcycled mediums have carved out a vital space in street pop art and graffiti, reflecting a growing trend toward sustainability and consciousness in art. These materials, once discarded, are seen through a new lens, their potential for rebirth and transformation celebrated and utilized. In the hands of visionary artists, what was once considered waste is re-envisioned as an essential part of the creative process, challenging both artists and viewers to reconsider the value of what is thrown away. This practice not only diversifies the media used in urban art but also contributes to a broader conversation about sustainability, creativity, and the role of art in society.
