    Indivisible HPM Limited Edition Hand Pulled 4-Color Serigraph Print on Coventry Rag Archival Paper by Saber Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. This is a large print. -40"x28" in -Serigraph/ mixed media, spray paint, pencil on Coventry Rag archival paper -Each print is unique with spraypaint and pencil -Hand deckled edges "This print was an experiment from start to finish. This is a multi-dimensional mixed media print in the sense the original was created as a conceptual digital-video piece. From this video experiment I was able to capture the final image to be translated into the print format. This was tricky breaking the American Flag that was printed on glass and capturing the right moments as it shattered, but as this process evolved so did the outcome. I really went all out on these with the hand-touching. Within the print layers are raw spray-paint tags buried under multi-colored split fountains. I also penciled and spray-painted on top of the prints weaving these colors and gestures through the image." -Saber

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.
