Denial's work often comments on consumerism, politics, and the media, and "American Daydream-Foil" is no exception. The image of a woman's face, reminiscent of the classic pop art style made famous by artists like Roy Lichtenstein, is overlaid with a dazzling pattern that reveals and conceals her features. This interplay suggests the tension between reality and the manufactured dreams sold to society, a recurring theme in Denial's oeuvre and a poignant critique that resonates deeply in street pop art and graffiti. Reflective Surfaces and Societal Reflections in Denial's Art The reflective surface of "American Daydream-Foil" is a literal and figurative mirror, inviting viewers to reflect on their perceptions and the societal constructs that shape them. Denial’s use of foil is remarkably evocative, as it not only catches the eye but also suggests the allure and superficiality of the American Dream.

The piece's limited release and its Printer's Proof status elevate its value in the art market, making it a sought-after item for collectors of street pop art, graffiti artwork, and modern pop art. The PP mark signifies that this particular edition was used to check the quality before the final run, often kept by the artist for personal reasons or sold to discerning collectors who appreciate the rarity and authenticity of such proofs. Denial's "American Daydream-Foil" is a powerful addition to the narrative of street pop art and graffiti artwork.

And Then Things Got Better Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 330gsm Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2020 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 25 Artwork Size 24x24 And Then Things Got Better by Denial – A Bold Statement of Hope in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork And Then Things Got Better is a striking archival pigment print created by the Canadian street pop artist Denial in 2020. Measuring 24 x 24 inches and printed on 330gsm fine art paper, this work was released in a signed and numbered limited edition of only 25. The piece draws immediate visual comparison to classic comic strip aesthetics but subverts expectations through a modern lens. Featuring a close-up portrait of a woman rendered in high contrast with bold black outlines, vibrant pink lips, vivid green eyes, and Ben-Day dot textures, the print captures the emotional intensity that Denial is known for. The panel’s yellow upper strip carries the titular phrase, printed in an all-caps comic font: And Then Things Got Better. This single line, combined with the woman’s dramatic upward gaze and tear-tracked cheek, encapsulates a surge of conflicted emotion—part relief, part disbelief, part residual pain. The composition is frozen in that precise psychological moment when change begins to arrive but healing is still in motion. Denial’s Subversive Pop Art Language Denial, born Daniel Bombardier in Canada, is an internationally recognized street and gallery artist whose work critiques consumerism, propaganda, and social norms through humor and graphic visual impact. Known for blending techniques from graffiti, signage, and mass media design, Denial’s prints and installations draw heavily from the legacy of pop art while injecting them with urban urgency. In And Then Things Got Better, he uses a format popularized by 1960s pop art pioneers but repurposes it to speak not about romantic melodrama but about resilience and psychological transformation. The woman’s expression is not one of shallow sadness but rather of deep processing, portraying an honest reckoning with personal or collective experience. Through limited text and bold imagery, Denial emphasizes that change, when it comes, is layered and uncertain—but worth embracing. Technical Execution and Print Quality Each print in this limited run is crafted using high-resolution archival pigment printing on 330gsm fine art paper, a museum-quality substrate known for its texture, color accuracy, and longevity. The use of pigment-based inks ensures that the vivid blues, intense blacks, and shocking pinks maintain their vibrancy without fading over time. The paper’s weight provides both tactile richness and physical substance, grounding the emotional weight of the artwork. As each edition is hand-signed and numbered by the artist, the piece becomes not just a reproduction but a personal artifact of Denial’s evolving catalog. The crisp precision of the linework, especially in the hair and lettering, showcases Denial’s control of visual rhythm and contrast. It is a piece that can exist comfortably in both street-influenced interiors and formal gallery settings. And Then Things Got Better as Contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork This artwork exemplifies the spirit of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork through its fusion of pop iconography with modern emotional depth. While many works in the genre embrace irony or satire, Denial’s print finds space for sincerity without losing its graphic punch. It celebrates the ability of contemporary pop artists to use comic tropes and urban aesthetics not just for critique, but for emotional storytelling. The message of the piece is simple, but the context surrounding it—social upheaval, personal growth, psychological distress—makes it resonate profoundly. Denial manages to channel the graphic immediacy of street art with the structured punch of pop, giving voice to the hope that often emerges quietly after storms. And Then Things Got Better is not only a statement—it is a question, a moment of breath, and a visual reminder of survival through art.

And Then Things Got Better- Autumn Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 330gsm Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 25 Artwork Size 24x24 Autumn Variant  And Then Things Got Better – Autumn Edition by Denial in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork And Then Things Got Better – Autumn is a 2021 limited edition archival pigment print by Canadian artist Denial, created as part of his ongoing series that reinterprets comic book visuals through the lens of contemporary street pop art. Measuring 24 x 24 inches and printed on heavyweight 330gsm fine art paper, this variant is one of only 25 signed and numbered prints, offering collectors a rare and seasonally themed perspective within the collection. The Autumn edition channels the palette and emotional resonance of fall through a warm, earthy color scheme of orange, amber, and golden undertones. The woman at the center of the composition, defined by bold linework and a dramatic swoop of hair, gazes upward with a mix of cautious optimism and post-storm exhaustion. Above her, the now iconic caption And Then Things Got Better is set against a yellow-orange background, simultaneously echoing comic book tradition and seasonal transformation. Seasonal Emotion and Symbolic Colorwork The visual tone of the Autumn edition reflects the emotional qualities often associated with the fall season—reflection, change, and letting go. Deep burnt orange hues replace previous colorways’ cooler tones, adding an emotional warmth that suggests inner strength earned through adversity. The character’s eyes, lips, and hair are saturated in rust-like reds and golden browns, evoking fallen leaves and transitional skies. This color shift alters the mood of the piece without changing its structure, proving Denial’s mastery of emotional modulation through minimalist design. The caption reads as both a statement and a question, challenging viewers to consider whether things truly improved or if the calm is just temporary. The Autumn edition positions itself in the emotional pause before a new cycle begins, harnessing the metaphor of seasonal decay and renewal as a backdrop for internal reflection. Denial’s Voice in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Daniel Bombardier, working under the name Denial, has long operated at the intersection of public art and commercial critique. His works are recognized for fusing the sharpness of graffiti culture with the accessibility of pop imagery. The And Then Things Got Better series explores psychological nuance using the familiar visual style of comic book heroines. Each edition in the series holds distinct emotional weight through its use of color, and the Autumn variant is one of the most grounded and introspective. Denial’s work continually invites interpretation, and his use of irony, juxtaposition, and nostalgia positions him as one of the defining voices in modern Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The Autumn edition embraces this balance by offering visual serenity tinged with emotional complexity, allowing the viewer to project their own experience onto the scene. Print Technique and Collectible Value The Autumn variant is produced using archival pigment ink, ensuring the longevity and vibrancy of its autumnal palette. The 330gsm fine art paper adds weight and texture, allowing the halftone shading and sharp contrasts to appear crisp and tactile.

And Then Things Got Better- Hate Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 330gsm Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 25 Artwork Size 24x24 Hate Variant And Then Things Got Better – Hate Edition by Denial in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork And Then Things Got Better – Hate is a stark and emotionally charged archival pigment print created in 2021 by Canadian graffiti and pop artist Denial, born Daniel Bombardier. Released as a limited edition of only 25 signed and numbered prints, this artwork measures 24 x 24 inches and is produced on 330gsm museum-grade fine art paper. Known for his confrontational visuals and bold aesthetic rooted in consumer critique, Denial utilizes the visual language of comic art to explore psychological complexity through accessible pop iconography. In this Hate variant, the entire color palette is stripped down to grayscale, replacing the warmth and vibrancy of other versions with chilling neutrality. The caption panel in steel grey sets the emotional tone, while the central female figure—rendered in only black, white, and soft gray—expresses quiet anguish, captured mid-thought or in the wake of emotional turmoil. The Aesthetic and Emotional Distinction of the Hate Variant This version of Denial’s iconic piece is not just a color shift; it is a deliberate recalibration of tone and message. The grayscale palette evokes detachment, coldness, and numbness, suggesting a psychological state that exists after trauma or emotional collapse. The woman’s face, modeled on mid-century pop comic heroines, feels frozen and devoid of warmth—an intentional contrast that communicates emotional suppression rather than catharsis. The caption And Then Things Got Better, when read through the filter of the Hate edition, becomes deeply ironic. It may hint at repression, anger, or resignation masked by a public-facing statement of recovery. The tearless face, the narrowed gaze, and the absence of saturated color transform the image into a statement about the silence and distance that often follow intense personal or societal strain. Denial’s Commentary Through Minimalism in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Denial has long used mass media aesthetics to speak about propaganda, emotional manipulation, and the illusions behind commercial and cultural messages. In this Hate variant, he strips the image to its essential structure to expose emotional contradiction. The crisp linework, patterned Ben-Day dot textures, and monochromatic shading reinforce the graphic roots of his style, while the stripped-back execution demands viewers focus on tone and posture rather than color. Denial’s participation in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork includes both wall-based interventions and limited edition fine art prints. Each format reflects his core mission: to disrupt perception and provoke thought using visual devices drawn from advertising and pop culture. This piece, though quieter in palette, is one of the loudest in emotional tension. It captures the essence of denial—not just the artist's moniker, but the human behavior—where feelings are buried beneath public declarations. Craftsmanship and Collectibility of the Hate Edition Printed with pigment-based inks on 330gsm acid-free fine art paper, the Hate edition is crafted to maintain both visual integrity and physical longevity. The texture of the paper allows the grayscale tones to achieve subtle variations in shading, while the precision of the print highlights every line and halftone. Each piece is signed and numbered by the artist, affirming its value as a collectible within Denial’s larger body of work. The choice to release this variant in a small edition of 25 enhances its exclusivity and relevance, especially for collectors attuned to the emotional narratives within pop art. As a statement within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, the Hate variant serves as a reminder that even the boldest images can carry quiet, unresolved messages. It is a visual testament to the moments where the world insists things are better—but the body, and the face, still remember.

Released as a signed and numbered edition of only 25, the Love variant stands apart through its carefully adjusted palette, which replaces the original’s vibrant primaries with soft, emotionally resonant hues. The striking shift to pinks and purples softens the overall aesthetic while maintaining the sharp, high-contrast linework that defines Denial’s style. The iconic phrase printed in the upper panel—And Then Things Got Better—remains the anchor of the piece, positioned above the tear-streaked face of a woman rendered in bold pop-art fashion. With pale skin and expressive lips, the figure gazes upward, caught in a complex moment between sorrow and optimism. Color, Emotion, and Visual Narrative in the Love Variant In this edition, Denial reinterprets the emotional framework of his original design by utilizing pastel pinks and purples, creating a tone of emotional vulnerability layered over visual strength. The Love variant speaks directly to the experience of heartbreak and healing, where the gentle coloring reflects tenderness and sensitivity. The woman’s hair, now a deep violet, contrasts dramatically with her pale complexion and muted lips. The caption panel—shaded in pink instead of yellow—invokes a romantic softness that reframes the same sentence with deeper personal implications. Where the original shouted a message of survival, this variant whispers it, suggesting a slower, more intimate path toward emotional restoration. The expression on the woman's face remains one of strength under pressure, but this version invites the viewer into a quieter, more personal dialogue with resilience. Denial’s Voice in Modern Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Denial, whose real name is Daniel Bombardier, continues to push the boundaries of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork with projects like the And Then Things Got Better series.

Every print is signed and numbered by the artist, marking its authenticity and rarity. With only 25 editions produced, the Love variant becomes a highly sought-after collectible that combines visual nostalgia with emotional depth. Denial’s meticulous attention to both concept and execution ensures that this piece stands as an exemplar of how Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork can carry both visual punch and sincere sentiment.

"My work speaks of impending doom and a lot of crass sinister themes, but that should not mean I desire this to happen at all.

The message, ambiguous and potent, hovers above an image rich in stylized tension, caught between vulnerability and reclamation. The Pink Palette as Emotional Architecture Color is central to the emotional tone of the Pink edition. Denial replaces the original comic yellow and blue hues with intense fuchsia tones and a warmer palette that redefines the scene. The deep pink in the woman's lips and hair provides a punch of contemporary energy while maintaining the flat, graphic intensity typical of pop art. Her gaze remains fixed beyond the viewer, carrying with it the weight of introspection, change, and unspoken resolve. The caption feels less ironic here than in other versions, lending the piece a sense of recovery framed through identity and empowerment. Denial often explores duality—conflict and healing, fear and strength—and this print manifests that exploration visually. The woman's poised expression and stylized tears challenge the boundaries between narrative and design, letting the viewer choose whether the message reflects sarcasm, survival, or both.

Limited to only 25 pieces, the Pink edition carries both scarcity and emotional resonance, reflecting Denial’s unique ability to merge bold visuals with conceptual weight. This work sits confidently within the larger canon of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, demonstrating how humor, drama, and color can coexist in one frame to tell a story that is at once universal and deeply personal.

The grayscale halftone skin contrasts with icy blues in the hair, lips, and eyes, casting the entire scene in a tone of emotional suspension. Where other variants express fire, bloom, or warmth, Winter delivers stillness. The character’s expression remains subtle, her upward gaze neither fully hopeful nor despairing. It reads instead like the calm acknowledgment that change has arrived, but not without cost. The blue lips and tear-lined eye introduce a cold, resilient strength, suggesting a quiet form of endurance rather than celebration. Denial’s ability to use color as narrative structure allows this edition to function as a metaphor for emotional winter—a time of withdrawal, self-preservation, and stark realization. Denial’s Pop Language and Street Credibility Denial’s work remains rooted in the language of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, consistently blending commercial aesthetics, pop iconography, and emotional subtext. The And Then Things Got Better series explores the complexities of survival, identity, and transformation using the nostalgic format of mid-century comic book panels. By pairing these familiar visuals with ambiguous emotional content, Denial asks viewers to reconsider the narratives embedded in popular culture. The Winter edition, with its subdued palette and intense contrast, sharpens this question further. It places the viewer in a season of reflection—literal and figurative—and encourages a reassessment of what better truly means. Denial’s consistent use of irony, sincerity, and sharp visual craftsmanship keeps his work relevant both on the street and in the gallery. Material Quality and Collector Appeal Printed on 330gsm fine art paper with archival pigment inks, this edition promises long-lasting vibrancy and detail. The halftone dots and inky black lines are rendered with museum-level precision, giving the work a timeless print quality that honors its pop art lineage. Each piece is hand-signed and individually numbered by Denial, adding a personal layer to the already limited run of 25. The Winter edition stands as a striking chapter in a series that has become one of Denial’s most collected bodies of work. For fans of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, it offers a moment of calm contemplation in the midst of louder visual narratives. This print captures that rare, cold breath between endings and new beginnings—when things have indeed gotten better, but the thaw has just begun.

And Then Things Got Better- Spring Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 330gsm Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 25 Artwork Size 24x24 Spring Variant And Then Things Got Better – Spring Edition by Denial in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork And Then Things Got Better – Spring is a 2021 limited edition archival pigment print by Canadian street pop artist Denial, also known as Daniel Bombardier. Printed on 330gsm museum-grade fine art paper and measuring 24 x 24 inches, this piece is part of a signed and numbered edition of just 25. As one of the expressive variants in the And Then Things Got Better series, the Spring edition brings a refreshing energy and emotional shift to a classic comic-inspired format. Denial captures the psychological moment of transition with a female figure drawn in high-contrast linework, framed tightly in a close-up of her face. Her vivid teal hair, eyes, and lips contrast with the cream-toned halftone skin, emphasizing clarity and renewal in contrast to the turmoil depicted in earlier colorways of the same composition. The Role of Color and Message in the Spring Variant The Spring edition revitalizes Denial’s familiar scene of reflection and emotional complexity through its fresh, cool palette. The use of teal throughout the character’s features creates an uplifting atmosphere, mirroring seasonal rebirth and a sense of emotional reset. The caption And Then Things Got Better, rendered in black against a teal panel, shifts in meaning depending on the viewer’s frame of mind. Within this color scheme, the phrase feels less ironic and more quietly triumphant. The character’s upward gaze and slightly parted lips hint at realization and hope rather than crisis or aftermath. Her facial expression remains poised in emotional suspense, a trademark of Denial’s approach to visual narrative. This piece explores the delicate balance between fragility and strength, offering a fresh layer of emotional depth through a minimal yet powerful adjustment in tone. Denial’s Commentary Through Comic Language in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Denial is one of the most prominent figures in contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, known for repurposing the visual vocabulary of pop culture, propaganda, and consumer signage into emotionally charged works. The And Then Things Got Better series demonstrates his ability to manipulate familiar imagery in new ways, using subtle variation to explore themes of mental health, societal conditioning, and personal evolution. The Spring edition maintains the precision of Denial’s comic-inspired format—Ben-Day dot textures, thick outlines, and exaggerated features—while allowing the color choices to speak directly to the emotional undercurrent. As with all works in this series, the format recalls mid-century mass media but carries the urgency and intimacy of street culture. The juxtaposition of mass reproducibility with the authenticity of emotion creates a tension that is central to Denial’s impact in the genre. Production Quality and Collector Significance of the Spring Edition This edition is printed using archival pigment inks designed for longevity, preserving the richness of color and detail over time. The 330gsm fine art paper offers both durability and a tactile surface that complements the graphic strength of the image. Each piece is hand-signed and numbered by Denial, affirming its place within a tightly curated edition. The Spring variant’s soft yet bold aesthetic, paired with its scarcity, makes it a highly collectible artifact in the modern pop and street art market. More than just a reimagining of an existing motif, it is a distinct chapter in a visual dialogue about resilience and change. Denial’s Spring edition is a vivid embodiment of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork’s capacity to hold both critical reflection and emotional release in a single, stylized frame.

"My work speaks of impending doom and a lot of crass sinister themes, but that should not mean I desire this to happen at all. I hope my work would suggest only the opposite: to show the ridiculousness of it all and how we may find better solutions for the future." -Denial Denial’s art is strongly political and social since the artist takes specific positions against issues, such as capitalism, consumer culture, and advertisements. More importantly, the artist is aware of his choices and motivations: “I like to think of myself as activist pop art. How I relate with cartoons and graphics is a lot easier than I do with photo-realistic stuff" Another aspect of Denial's work is humor. His work is satirical, which, by definition, means that it uses humor as a confronting mechanism.

As a result, his art is as familiar, as it is disturbing because it reveals the most unsettling parts of society, the ones we are in a “denial” of. No matter its controversial history, graffiti is less and less viewed as a form of vandalism.

Covid No 19- Bleue Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print on 290gsm MOAB Fine Art Paper by Graffiti Pop Art and Street Artist Denial. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 19 Bleue Covid19 Chanel Hand Sanitizer Virus Variant. Numbered, Signed, Stamped on Reverse Archival Pigment Print on MOAB Fine Art Paper 290 GSM Size 18" x 24" Denial’s COVID No. 19: Luxury Branding in the Age of Global Crisis Denial’s COVID No. 19 is a striking archival pigment print released in 2021 as a limited edition of 19, each hand-signed, numbered, and stamped on 290gsm MOAB fine art paper. The work appropriates the form of a Chanel No. 5 perfume bottle, replacing its iconic label with a fictional product name: COVID No. 19 Hand Sanitizer. Rendered with hyper-clean digital precision, the image reconfigures the aesthetics of high fashion to comment on the absurdities of pandemic-era consumerism. The hand sanitizer bottle is presented with all the visual authority of a luxury good, transforming an object of necessity into a parody of status and desire. At the core of this piece is a brutal cultural observation: during a global health emergency, everyday tools of survival—like sanitizer and masks—were elevated to symbols of identity, fashion, and economic access. Denial’s rebranding of Chanel’s perfume into a virus-era commodity confronts this shift head-on. The artwork doesn’t merely lampoon luxury—it reveals how systems of marketing can absorb trauma, repackage it, and sell it back to the public. The Chanel-style labeling is clinical yet elegant, a nod to how visual minimalism often masks corporate manipulation. Commercial Aesthetics as Subversive Weaponry Denial’s artistic strategy centers on the theft and recontextualization of commercial language. With COVID No. 19, the use of vector-sharp line work, realistic light reflections, and exacting product design mimics advertising to the point of deception. This imitation is intentional. The viewer is meant to initially read the image as authentic—something from a fashion magazine or cosmetics campaign—before the irony of the label snaps into focus. The dissonance between form and content invites a critique of the capitalist tendency to aestheticize suffering. This visual methodology ties directly into the ethos of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Denial’s roots in unauthorized public messaging and subcultural image disruption remain present, even as the work exists in a fine art format. The absence of spray drips or rough textures does not diminish the rebellion. Instead, it retools the graphic language of commercial persuasion to undermine itself from within. What looks like a product pitch is, in fact, a visual accusation. The pandemic is not the subject—it is the branding of the pandemic that comes under fire. Street Pop Art as Pandemic Documentation COVID No. 19 operates as both satire and historical record. It captures a cultural moment when survival tools became luxury statements, when scarcity was linked to exclusivity, and when branding extended even to medical supplies. Denial’s artwork speaks to the way modern crises are not only experienced but marketed—how the fear of illness was filtered through the same systems that sell beauty, fashion, and lifestyle. The sanitizer bottle becomes a symbol not of protection, but of consumption. By fusing the iconography of fashion with the reality of a global pandemic, Denial forces the viewer to reconsider the boundaries between design and ethics, branding and survival. The visual simplicity of COVID No. 19 hides a layered indictment of how quickly commercial aesthetics can strip events of meaning. In the tradition of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, this piece turns familiar symbols against themselves, exposing the fragility of culture’s glossy surfaces when confronted with real human urgency.

Rendered with hyper-clean digital precision, the image reconfigures the aesthetics of high fashion to comment on the absurdities of pandemic-era consumerism. The hand sanitizer bottle is presented with all the visual authority of a luxury good, transforming an object of necessity into a parody of status and desire. At the core of this piece is a brutal cultural observation: during a global health emergency, everyday tools of survival—like sanitizer and masks—were elevated to symbols of identity, fashion, and economic access. Denial’s rebranding of Chanel’s perfume into a virus-era commodity confronts this shift head-on. The artwork doesn’t merely lampoon luxury—it reveals how systems of marketing can absorb trauma, repackage it, and sell it back to the public. The Chanel-style labeling is clinical yet elegant, a nod to how visual minimalism often masks corporate manipulation. Commercial Aesthetics as Subversive Weaponry Denial’s artistic strategy centers on the theft and recontextualization of commercial language. With COVID No. 19, the use of vector-sharp line work, realistic light reflections, and exacting product design mimics advertising to the point of deception. This imitation is intentional. The viewer is meant to initially read the image as authentic—something from a fashion magazine or cosmetics campaign—before the irony of the label snaps into focus. The dissonance between form and content invites a critique of the capitalist tendency to aestheticize suffering. This visual methodology ties directly into the ethos of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Denial’s roots in unauthorized public messaging and subcultural image disruption remain present, even as the work exists in a fine art format. The absence of spray drips or rough textures does not diminish the rebellion. Instead, it retools the graphic language of commercial persuasion to undermine itself from within. What looks like a product pitch is, in fact, a visual accusation. The pandemic is not the subject—it is the branding of the pandemic that comes under fire. Street Pop Art as Pandemic Documentation COVID No. 19 operates as both satire and historical record. It captures a cultural moment when survival tools became luxury statements, when scarcity was linked to exclusivity, and when branding extended even to medical supplies. Denial’s artwork speaks to the way modern crises are not only experienced but marketed—how the fear of illness was filtered through the same systems that sell beauty, fashion, and lifestyle. The sanitizer bottle becomes a symbol not of protection, but of consumption. By fusing the iconography of fashion with the reality of a global pandemic, Denial forces the viewer to reconsider the boundaries between design and ethics, branding and survival. The visual simplicity of COVID No. 19 hides a layered indictment of how quickly commercial aesthetics can strip events of meaning. In the tradition of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, this piece turns familiar symbols against themselves, exposing the fragility of culture’s glossy surfaces when confronted with real human urgency.

Curser Original Hand-Painted Multiple (HPM) Aerosol with Clear Coat Finish on Laser Cut Wood ready to hang by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2019 Signed & Numbered Aerosol with Clear Coat Finish on Laser Cut Wood Size: 5.5 x 7 x 1 Inches Release: August 14, 2019 Run of 100 "I like to think of myself as an activist in pop art. How I relate with cartoons and graphics is much easier than with photo-realistic stuff. I love referencing things that people are so familiar with. With humor and nostalgia, you can open up communication. I've done that for years and used elements of humor and familiarity to open a dialogue because then you can slide in some real issues and different things you're trying to convey in your work. You have a lot more open stream to the person's consciousness and experience towards how they're taking your art. If you can get them to laugh at it, remember something or relate to some image." -Denial- Daniel Bombardier The Innovative Intersection of Technology and Art in Denial's "Curser" In the dynamic and ever-evolving world of modern pop art, "Curser," a hand-painted multiple (HPM) by the renowned graffiti street artist Denial, stands out as a remarkable piece that encapsulates the spirit of contemporary street pop art and graffiti artwork. Denial, whose real name is Daniel Bombardier, has been a prominent figure in the art world, known for his activist approach and incorporation of pop culture elements into his works. The "Curser" HPM, released on August 14, 2019, is a limited edition series of 100, each piece bearing the artist's unique touch with aerosol paint and a clear coat finish on laser-cut wood. This artwork, measuring 5.5 x 7 x 1 inches, is a visual play on the familiar digital cursor, a ubiquitous digital symbol in the digital age. Denial transforms this everyday icon into a standalone piece of art that challenges viewers to reconsider the symbols that permeate our daily lives—using laser-cut wood as a medium is a nod to the precision and crispness of digital graphics. At the same time, the hand-painted aerosol technique infuses the work with the authenticity and raw appeal of street art. Denial's Artistic Philosophy and Its Reflection in "Curser" Denial's philosophy of using humor and nostalgia to engage audiences is vividly reflected in "Curser." By recontextualizing a digital pointer into a tangible, hand-crafted object, the artist bridges the gap between the virtual and the physical, the ephemeral and the permanent. Denial believes in the power of pop art to initiate dialogue, a belief that is evident in how "Curser" resonates with a broad audience. The familiar shape of the cursor, combined with the unexpected medium and manual intervention, becomes a conversation starter, prompting discussions about the impact of technology on art and society. The clear coat finish on "Curser" gives the artwork a modern sheen, reminiscent of the glossy interfaces of smartphones and computers, thus further blurring the lines between traditional graffiti art and contemporary digital aesthetics. This piece is not merely an artwork but a statement on the convergence of our digital experiences with the physical world. Denial's work exemplifies the evolving nature of street pop art, where traditional techniques merge with modern-day themes to create a new form of cultural expression. Collectibility and Cultural Impact of Denial's "Curser" As a collectible, "Curser" holds a special place in street pop art. Its limited run and the individual hand embellishments by Denial make each piece in the series unique, coveted by collectors who value the intersection of street art sensibilities with pop culture commentary. Denial's work, particularly "Curser," is a testament to the growing appreciation for graffiti art as a medium that can entertain and provoke thought. The cultural impact of "Curser" is amplified by its accessibility and relatability. Denial's approachable art invites viewers to reflect on the interplay between their digital habits and the tangible world, an increasingly relevant theme in our tech-driven society. The artwork serves as a reminder of the pervasive nature of digital symbols in our lives and the importance of questioning and exploring these elements through art. "Curser" is a prime example of how contemporary street artists like Denial push the boundaries of what street pop art and graffiti artwork can represent. The piece embodies the transformative potential of art to adapt and respond to the changing landscape of cultural symbols and societal issues. Denial's ability to infuse his work with wit and a sense of familiarity allows for a deeper engagement with his audience, making "Curser" a visually striking piece and a meaningful commentary on our times.

Decycled Coach Limited Edition Hand-Embellished HPM Archival Pigment Prints with Collage, Aerosol, Pencil, and Varnish Embellishments on Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2021 Signed Limited Edition Numbered & Custom Framed Archival Pigment Print with Collage, Aerosol, Pencil, and Varnish Embellishments Size: 17.8125 x 23.75 Inches Release: December 09, 2021 Run of: 4 Denial’s Decycled Coach: Pharmaceutical Luxury and Brand Disruption in Street Pop Art Denial’s Decycled Coach is a mixed-media archival pigment print that merges collage, aerosol, pencil, and varnish techniques into a hand-embellished visual attack on luxury branding. Released in 2021 as an extremely limited edition of only 4, each print is signed, numbered, and custom framed, measuring 17.8125 by 23.75 inches. At the center of the composition lies a stylized capsule—rendered in clean, glossy layers—branded with the Coach logo. Its form is both pharmaceutical and sculptural, set against a fragmented background of splattered paint, screenprint halftones, and broken gradients that suggest movement, chaos, and intentional vandalism. The pill, labeled 100MG, serves as a pointed metaphor. It reframes luxury as medication, treating identity, insecurity, and social status as symptoms to be relieved by consumption. This is not a critique from the outside; it is a surgical strike from within. Denial borrows from the brand’s own aesthetic language—its serifed typeface, equestrian motif, and minimal labeling—then disrupts it with gestures that belong to graffiti: sprayed arcs, color streaks, intentional imperfections. The capsule becomes a fetish object, reduced to something digestible, addictive, and ultimately disposable. Corporate Logos as Emotional Currency Denial’s recurring use of logos in his work is not about parody; it is about exposure. In Decycled Coach, the brand’s heritage and refinement are stripped of context and placed into an environment of instability. The work becomes an autopsy of commercial trust. Coach, like many fashion houses, trades on nostalgia, elegance, and aspirational identity. By embedding it within the shape of a pill, Denial questions what it means when a logo provides emotional relief. The suggestion is not subtle—brands function like medicine, numbing pain and offering belonging in exchange for loyalty. The background’s visual noise reinforces this dissonance. Torn patterns and abrupt texture shifts interrupt the central figure, refusing to let the viewer settle into comfort. A traditional ornate gold frame surrounds the chaos, an ironic nod to classical portraiture. It presents the artwork as something precious, even regal, despite its abrasive content. This friction between polish and resistance defines much of Denial’s work in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Material Hybridity and Street-Informed Technique What makes Decycled Coach stand out is its physicality. Unlike digitally composed editions, this hand-embellished multiple incorporates real layers of texture through collage and varnish. Each print becomes a hybrid between printmaking and painting. The surface is manipulated with street-level tools—spray paint and pencil—suggesting the rapid, instinctual mark-making of graffiti writers. Yet the pill shape remains controlled and pristine, emphasizing the clash between authority and rebellion, product and protest. Denial, whose real name is Daniel Bombardier, continues to expand the vocabulary of Street Pop Art by interrogating how capitalist culture manufactures meaning. His art exists not just in critique, but in confrontation. Decycled Coach exemplifies this through its fearless dismantling of visual systems. The framed artwork becomes a mirror to modern consumer logic, where even rebellion can be bought, and where the cure to identity confusion is offered in branded, digestible doses.

Decycled Versace Limited Edition Hand-Embellished HPM Archival Pigment Prints with Collage, Aerosol, Pencil, and Varnish Embellishments on Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2021 Signed Limited Edition Numbered & Custom Framed Archival Pigment Print with Collage, Aerosol, Pencil, and Varnish Embellishments Size: 17.8125 x 23.75 Inches Release: December 09, 2021 Run of: 15 Denial’s Decycled Versace: The Medicine of Branding in Contemporary Street Pop Art Denial’s Decycled Versace, released in 2021 as a hand-embellished archival pigment print, continues the artist’s sharp interrogation of brand worship, identity construction, and the seductive aesthetics of consumerism. Each edition in this 15-print run measures 17.8125 by 23.75 inches, uniquely altered with collage, aerosol, pencil, and varnish layers. Centered within a baroque gold frame, the work features a large, stylized capsule—branded with the iconic Versace Medusa head—set against a background of jagged patterns and fractured color fields. The capsule is marked 100MG, reinforcing its identity as both visual object and conceptual drug. Denial, also known as Daniel Bombardier, uses the pill as a central form throughout his Decycled series to comment on the addictive nature of status and the role luxury logos play in modern identity. By embedding the Versace logo inside the capsule, the work equates brand consumption with self-medication. The gesture is neither glorification nor condemnation—it is exposure. The logo becomes an ingredient, the dosage carefully calculated to deliver an emotional or social high. In this way, Decycled Versace critiques not only the brand but the cultural systems that elevate such symbols to near-mythological status. Visual Noise and Symbolic Disruption The background of Decycled Versace is composed of sharp diagonal slices, splatter textures, halftone fields, and expressive spray lines. These elements reference both traditional graffiti techniques and digital design aesthetics. The layering creates visual tension that denies stillness or easy resolution. Against this chaotic backdrop, the sleek and glowing pill shape appears almost sterile in contrast. The effect is disorienting but intentional—luxury, the work seems to suggest, thrives when placed above the messiness it claims to erase. The Medusa head, a long-standing Versace emblem tied to Greek mythology and themes of desire and danger, is reclaimed here as an icon of consumer hypnosis. Placed inside the pill, it becomes an object of internalization. Denial’s use of halftones and rough stenciling techniques further destabilizes the polished aura of the brand, reminding viewers that behind every clean logo is a constructed illusion. In the context of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, the work reclaims visual space from marketing systems and redistributes it as artistic critique. The Framed Illusion of Power and Permanence The ornate gold frame surrounding Decycled Versace plays a critical role in the piece’s messaging. Traditionally associated with classical portraiture and gallery sanctity, the frame lends artificial authority to the artwork. But that reverence is undercut by the content inside—messy, chaotic, ruptured. The pill format, designed to look sleek and scientific, floats inside this field like a sacred relic. The dissonance between material refinement and conceptual rebellion is where the piece gains its weight. Denial’s manipulation of the fine art object mirrors the dual lives of luxury brands, which often straddle the lines between exclusivity and mass visibility. Decycled Versace exists as both critique and artifact of the very system it exposes. By transforming brand logos into medicinal metaphors, Denial forces a reevaluation of how identity is consumed, and how branding operates as both symptom and cure in modern culture. Within the language of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, this piece functions not just as commentary but as a dose of visual clarity in a culture addicted to image.

DJ Qbert Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Ben Frost, Denial, DJ Qbert Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. Canadian artist Denial and Australian-born Ben Frost have joined forces in a bold exhibition of new work that explores the boundaries of appropriation, in confronting re-imaginings of our current dystopian society. "Company of Thieves" at Inner State Gallery in Detroit with special guest DJ Qbert. These self-confessed ‘visual thieves have a long history of stealing and subverting the cultural icons that the advertising and consumerist world has thrust upon us, creating new and pertinent interpretations that are as confronting as they are humorous. This collaboration with DJ Qbert carries on with this theme as all 3 artists join together as a Company of Thieves, sampling and remixing to create something entirely new. Ben Frost is utilizing imagery familiar to western culture in order to make a statement about the culture itself on the basis of consumerism, modern icons, big corporations, etc. Animation characters, pop icons, brand logos, and many more are transformed into vibrant artworks and find their place in galleries. With this in mind, and in the case of Ben Frost, it is futile to try to identify a clear borderline between low and high art. In reality, the artist wants the audience to think on the terms of high or low value and, by extension, what these actually mean. Over the years street artists have managed to establish themselves as respected creators and some of them have even gained international fame, transforming graffiti from a fringe art, aiming sometimes to mark street gangs’ territory, into big business.
