The upper body and face of Mickey, concealed under a layer of abstract spray paint graffiti and words, further amalgamates traditional art forms with modern graffiti styles. OG Slick's motivation behind this series traces back to his younger days, during his visits to Chinatown. He recalls the presence of small figurines placed near store registers, believed to bring prosperity to the shopkeepers and blessings to those who offered them money. Drawing parallels, the artwork visualizes the same Guan Yin figurine, now juxtaposed in the digital age, where she is showered with digital currency, symbolizing the evolving nature of blessings and prosperity in contemporary times. Through this mesmerizing piece, OG Slick delves into the intricate dance of tradition and modernity, reminding viewers of the transient nature of cultural values and the enduring essence of art.

    Lauren YS Mobius White PP Silkscreen Print by Lauren YS

    Mobius White PP Printer Proof Silkscreen Print by Lauren YS Hand-Pulled 3-Color Screen Print on 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Artwork & Graffiti. PP Printers Proof 2019 Signed & PP Marked Limited Edition Run Artwork Size 18x14 Lauren YS and the 'Mobius White PP' Silkscreen Print The 'Mobius White PP' is a striking silkscreen print by the artist Lauren YS, part of a limited edition series that showcases a blend of pop art vibrancy and the edgy undercurrents of street art and graffiti. This hand-pulled 4-color screen print on 290gsm Coventry Rag fine art paper, released as a Printer's Proof (PP) in 2019, vividly represents the artist's unique style. Signed and marked PP, the artwork measures 18x14 inches and features an intricate depiction of interlocking octopuses, a motif often explored by Lauren YS in their work. Visual Complexity and Symbolism Lauren YS, also known as Squid.licker, is recognized for their bold, intricate designs and a penchant for surreal, dream-like subject matter that defies traditional narrative. The 'Mobius White PP' is no exception, presenting the viewer with a mesmerizing tableau of cephalopods entangled in an infinite loop. The use of the Mobius strip, a one-sided nonorientable surface, adds a layer of complexity, suggesting infinity, continuity, and the cyclical nature of existence. The choice of octopuses as the focal point is rich with symbolism. These creatures are often associated with mystery and flexibility, characteristics that resonate with street pop art's fluid and dynamic nature. Incorporating vibrant pink and blue hues against the stark white paper creates a visual pop, emphasizing the fluidity and movement within the static image. Artistic Process and Technique Lauren YS's approach to this print, utilizing the screen printing technique, indicates a hands-on process that is both artisanal and precise. The screen printing technique, particularly revered in street and pop art for its ability to produce vivid, textured layers of color, lends this work a tactile quality that belies its two-dimensional medium. Each color in the 'Mobius White PP' is applied one at a time, requiring exact alignment to achieve the final image's detail and depth. The choice of Coventry Rag paper underscores the artist's commitment to quality and longevity. This particular type of paper is favored by fine artists for its durability and ability to hold color without degradation, making it an ideal choice for a print intended to stand the test of time. Lauren YS's Place in Contemporary Art In the contemporary art scene, Lauren YS has carved out a space that transcends easy categorization, melding influences from comic books, muralism, and traditional Japanese and Chinese aesthetics. The 'Mobius White PP' exemplifies their ability to navigate and merge these diverse visual languages into a cohesive whole that speaks to a global audience. As a limited edition Printer's Proof, 'Mobius White PP' holds a special place in Lauren YS's works collection. The printers typically retain printer's Proofs as a reference and are often seen as a more intimate version of a print edition, carrying the marks of the printing process itself. The PP designation on this print signifies its status not only as part of a limited run but also as a piece that bears the direct touch of the artist. In the broader context of street pop and graffiti artwork, 'Mobius White PP' is a testament to the genre's evolving nature. Lauren YS's work continues to push the boundaries of how street art is perceived and experienced in public spaces and the collectors market. This print, with its interplay of street art sensibilities and fine art execution, captures the essence of this dynamic and continues to inspire dialogue within the art community.

  • Cream & Blue Sedation in Bloom Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Cream & Blue Sedation in Bloom Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Cream & Blue Sedation in Bloom Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2021 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 150 Artwork Size 18x24 Sedation in Bloom Silkscreen Print Series.  "I originally worked on this poppy pattern art as part of my collaboration with artist Gordon Cheung. In our piece, we addressed the tragic murder of Vincent Chin and the historical use of anti-Asian imagery and symbols in Western culture. The poppy is a beautiful flower with many symbolic interpretations, including peace, death, sleep, and sedation. I often weave floral and decorative patterns into my art to draw viewers in and make challenging concepts more digestible. However, decorative appeal can sedate people and distract them from more important social issues. Whether in entertainment, alcohol, drugs, or conspicuous consumption, I think sedation is a major cause of social and political complacency and ignorance. These Sedation In Bloom prints serve the dual purpose of a decorative escape and a reminder to stay awake and aware!" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY. Cream & Blue Sedation in Bloom: Reflecting on Society Through Street Pop Art The Cream & Blue Sedation in Bloom silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey, an iconic figure in the street pop art and graffiti artwork realm, stands as a thought-provoking piece that goes beyond mere aesthetic pleasure. Fairey, born as Frank Shepard Fairey on February 15, 1970, in Charleston, South Carolina, USA, has carved a niche for himself with works that often reflect a blend of political activism and artistry. This particular artwork, a part of the Sedation in Bloom series, is no exception. Hand-pulled on cream speckletone fine art paper, the Cream & Blue Sedation in Bloom is a limited edition artwork, with each piece signed and numbered by Fairey himself. The size of the artwork, 18x24 inches, offers a substantial canvas for the expression of intricate and symbolic imagery. Limited to an edition of 150, these prints capture the exclusive nature of Fairey's work. The Symbolism of Poppies in Fairey's Visual Language The motif of the poppy in this series carries rich symbolic interpretations, ranging from peace to death, and from sleep to sedation. Fairey's choice of the poppy is deliberate and multifaceted; it is not only about creating a pleasing visual but also about the underlying message it conveys. The interplay of the serene blue on cream reflects a tranquil aesthetic, yet the poppies' association with sedation challenges the viewer to look deeper into the societal implications of the artwork. Fairey’s work is a commentary on the complacency and ignorance that he perceives as pervasive in society. The seductive nature of entertainment, alcohol, drugs, and material excess serves as a means to sedate the masses, distracting them from social and political engagement. Through the Cream & Blue Sedation in Bloom print, Fairey juxtaposes the allure of the poppies with a call to consciousness, urging the viewer to stay awake and aware amid societal distractions. Artistic Collaboration and Social Commentary The inception of this poppy pattern art arose from Fairey's collaboration with Gordon Cheung, where the duo addressed the harrowing murder of Vincent Chin and the use of anti-Asian motifs in Western culture. By incorporating these themes into his street pop art, Fairey elevates the conversation from street-level discourse to a wider socio-political dialogue. The prints serve as a decorative escape, yet they double as a potent reminder of the importance of staying alert to the world's inequities and injustices. Shepard Fairey's Cream & Blue Sedation in Bloom is a striking example of how street pop art can be a powerful medium for social critique. As viewers engage with the harmonious color scheme and the delicate floral patterns, they are also confronted with the societal urge to remain vigilant. Through this series, Fairey reiterates his belief in the capacity of art to ignite change, to unsettle the comfortable, and to provoke a reawakening of social consciousness. The artwork symbolizes the dual role of art in modern culture: as an object of beauty and as a catalyst for awareness and action.

Like the angel of water; she is chilling in the glass of water. Water should be free and clean for everyone, we are all part of nature. I was working on this print throughout February hand coloring one by one, and it was period of Aquarius, zodiac sign, which is the symbol of the water server. I also discovered that the word Aquarius actually referred to the public water system in ancient Rome. When I discovered what happened with the Flint Water Crisis I couldn’t believe that it was happening now, and I am very furious about how government cannot do anything with it. Shame, why people in ancient times were able to provide clean water to everyone but not in Michigan in 2018?" - Aiko

Blotter paper artwork prints are a unique form of art that involves transferring ink onto specially treated blotter paper. The resulting prints are often abstract and colorful, and can be used for a variety of decorative and artistic purposes. To create a blotter paper artwork print, the artist first prepares the blotter paper by treating it with chemicals that will enhance its absorbency and ability to hold ink or dye. Then, ink or dye is applied to the paper using various techniques, such as dripping, pouring, or spraying. The paper is left to dry, and the resulting print is then carefully removed from the blotter paper. Archival printing techniques are used to produce high-quality prints of the original artwork. This involves using high-quality inks and paper that are designed to last for a long time without fading or deteriorating. Archival prints are also resistant to moisture and sunlight, which helps to preserve the artwork for years to come. Blotter paper artwork prints can be a great addition to any home or office decor, and they are often used as a unique form of wall art. They are also popular among collectors and art enthusiasts, as each print is one-of-a-kind and can never be replicated exactly.

At the heart of the artwork is a provocative representation of the beloved Mickey Mouse cartoon character, reimagined as Guan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion. This depiction intriguingly showcases Guan Yin, traditionally seen as a symbol of mercy and compassion, throwing hand signs, a gesture frequently seen in street art. The upper body and face of Mickey Mouse are cloaked in black, offering an intense contrast against the vibrant backdrop and evoking a sense of mystery. The inspiration behind this distinctive portrayal stems from OG Slick's childhood memories of Chinatown. There, small figurines placed at store registers were believed to bestow good fortune upon the shop owner and those who offered money. This traditional practice is cleverly juxtaposed with a modern twist in the artwork, where Guan Yin is illustrated being showered with digital currency, hinting at the evolving dynamics of value, faith, and the digital age. Through "Ink Head Slick Yellow", OG Slick has once again demonstrated his unique ability to amalgamate cultural symbols, childhood memories, and urban influences, creating an art piece that resonates deeply with both traditional and contemporary sentiments.

    Salvage Can 11 Original Painting on Spray Paint Can Mixed Media Sculpture Artwork by street artist graffiti legend Eddie Colla. 2018 Signed Original Spray Paint Acrylic Mixed Media on Spray Paint Can Artwork Size 3x8 "I made this series of cans in China in 2018. I had been waiting for supplies to start working on larger pieces. The residency where I was had kept all their empty spray cans. I started making these small pieces from the used spray cans. It wasn't anything I planned; I just had an unexpected amount of free time waiting for my materials to arrive, so I worked with what was available. Each can is signed and dated on the bottom of the can." -Eddie Colla Eddie Colla's Innovation in Street Art Eddie Colla's "Salvage Can 11" stands as a powerful statement within the realm of street pop art and graffiti artwork, an original painting on a spray paint can that marries mixed media techniques with the subversive energy of street art. The work is part of a series created in 2018 during a residency in China, a period that Colla describes as marked by an unexpected hiatus, waiting for art supplies, which led to the innovative use of discarded materials to create something unforeseen yet profound. Colla's "Salvage Can 11" is a testament to the spontaneous and adaptive spirit that often drives street art. Faced with a delay in his usual creative process, Colla turned to the empty spray cans available at his residency, transforming them from tools into canvases. This act of reclamation gave new life to the used cans and challenged the perception of value and utility in art materials. The resulting artwork—a signed original piece—is a mixed-media sculpture that encapsulates the essence of graffiti artwork: raw, immediate, and deeply personal. Visual Dynamics of "Salvage Can 11" The visual impact of "Salvage Can 11" is immediate and visceral. The imagery on the can is haunting, with the figure's features suggesting a blend of humanity and mask-like anonymity—a common theme in Colla's work, which often comments on identity and the individual's place within society. Using acrylic and spray paint adds texture and depth, with the stark black and purple hues commanding attention and drawing the viewer into a contemplative dialogue with the piece. Cultural Significance of Eddie Colla's Work Eddie Colla's contribution to street art extends beyond his murals and public installations. He bridges the gap between the street and the collector's space by bringing his art to a tangible, holdable medium like a spray paint can. "Salvage Can 11" embodies the transient nature of street art, while its existence as a preserved object challenges the ephemerality traditionally associated with the form. Colla's work is a reminder that street art is not confined to public spaces but is a dynamic art form that can inhabit and adapt to any context. The Resonance of the "Salvage Can" Series in Art Collecting The "Salvage Can" series holds a special place in the art collection. Each can, signed and dated by Colla, is not just an artwork but a historical piece that carries the story of its creation. Collectors of street pop art and graffiti artwork are often drawn to pieces with a narrative, and "Salvage Can 11" offers just that—a story of innovation, adaptation, and the creative process that unfolded in an artist's residency across the globe. "Salvage Can 11" is a mixed-media sculpture encapsulating Eddie Colla's innovative spirit and stature as a graffiti legend. The work is symbolic of the creativity that flourishes within the constraints of street art, highlighting Colla's ability to craft compelling narratives from unexpected circumstances.

  • The Windbeast Giclee Print by Victo Ngai

    Victo Ngai The Windbeast Giclee Print by Victo Ngai

    The Windbeast Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Fine Art Print on 100% Cotton Hahnemühle Museum Etching Paper by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Victo Ngai. 2014 Signed & Numbered Limited edition of 100 Artwork Size 13x19. Due to how this artwork was made and stored by the artist, many of Ngai's older prints contain slight yellowing to the extreme upper and lower white margin that extends about 1mm. This does not effect the image at all and the prints are perfect besides this. Victo Ngai's "The Windbeast" - A Confluence of Myth and Modernity "The Windbeast" by Victo Ngai, a striking piece of modern pop culture art, is a limited edition giclée print that is a vibrant testament to the fusion of traditional mythological themes with contemporary art styles. Created on 100% cotton Hahnemühle Museum Etching Paper, this artwork offers a lush texture that fits the rich narrative and visual complexity it presents. Victo Ngai, a renowned illustrator based in the United States, originally from Hong Kong, is celebrated for her intricate and thought-provoking illustrations that often incorporate elements of fantastical realism. Visual Symphony on Cotton Canvas In "The Windbeast," Ngai weaves an intricate tableau rich with cultural references and brimming with movement. The artwork, a cornucopia of vivid colors and whimsical imagery, features a central figure that could be interpreted as a mythical beast or a dragon — a nod to traditional Asian folklore. Swirling around this central figure are more miniature scenes and elements that seem to be at once a part of the creature and a separate narrative altogether. The use of 100% cotton Hahnemühle Museum Etching Paper heightens the piece's visual impact, as its fine grain and texture add depth and richness to the print that might be absent in other mediums. Ngai's choice of material is notable not only for its quality but also for its historical connection to the art world. Hahnemühle is one of the oldest papermakers in Europe, known for its high-quality art papers, and their Museum Etching Paper is designed specifically for artists who wish to reproduce their work with the same depth and detail as the original. By selecting such a distinguished canvas for her work, Ngai bridges the gap between digital illustration and traditional printmaking, underscoring the artistry in creating her work. "The Windbeast" in the Context of Street Pop Art and Graffiti While "The Windbeast" might be considered a departure from the raw, uncurated nature of street art and graffiti, its essence captures the spirit of these art forms. Street pop art and graffiti are characterized by their vibrancy, accessibility, and the way they often draw from various influences to make relevant statements to contemporary culture. Ngai's work aligns with these principles through its dynamic composition, engagement with folklore, and relevance to modern narratives of identity and globalization. The vivid, swirling colors and fantastical elements in "The Windbeast" resonate with street art's boldness and improvisational energy. The intricate details and narrative complexity parallel the layers of meaning often found in graffiti artwork, where each piece serves as a palimpsest of ideas and expressions. Ngai's print could easily be imagined as a large mural on the side of a building, engaging passersby with its otherworldly beauty and intricate storytelling. Conclusion: Victo Ngai's Artistic Fusion In sum, "The Windbeast" is a fine example of how traditional and modern elements can be synthesized to create timeless and contemporary art. Through her artwork, Victo Ngai contributes to the cultural dialogue, blending the mythical with the modern and the Eastern with the Western, creating pieces that reflect our multifaceted world. The limited edition nature of this print — with only 100 copies signed and numbered by the artist — adds an element of exclusivity that is often sought after in both the worlds of fine art and street art collectibles. This exclusivity, coupled with the artwork's rich narrative and visual appeal, makes "The Windbeast" a coveted piece for collectors and enthusiasts of modern pop culture, street pop, and graffiti artwork. It is a testament to Victo Ngai's prowess as an artist capable of capturing viewers' imagination, transporting them to worlds where myth and reality merge.

I hope this collaboration between Shepard and myself can raise awareness about the long history of anti-Asian hate and the important legacy of Vincent Chin whose untimely death in 1982 galvanised the people to demand Asian American civil rights. This current crucial moment in history calls for a gathering of momentum where Asian diaspora voices should go loud and proud. To stand together, advocate for change and collectively build bridges of understanding over glass ceilings and walls of hate. -Gordon Cheung

Asian American Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Asian American Influence on Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

The intersection of Asian American culture with street pop art and graffiti artwork is a vibrant and evolving canvas, showcasing a unique fusion of traditional Asian aesthetics with street art's rebellious and expressive nature. This amalgamation is a blending of styles and a powerful medium for Asian American artists to communicate their identities, experiences, and perspectives. The influence of Asian American artists in this realm has grown significantly, driven by the need for representation and the desire to share their narratives in a compelling, visually impactful way.

Historical Context and Evolution

Asian American involvement in street pop art and graffiti dates back to the late 20th century. During this period, cities across the United States witnessed the rise of graffiti and street art as forms of self-expression, often used to voice societal and political concerns. Asian American artists, influenced by their cultural heritage and the dynamics of their American experience, began to leave their mark in these urban landscapes. Their work often encapsulated themes of immigration, identity, and the clash of Eastern and Western cultures conveyed through distinctive use of color, symbolism, and calligraphy influenced by Asian art traditions.

Cultural Symbolism and Aesthetic Integration

In street pop art and graffiti art, Asian American artists have skillfully integrated elements of their cultural heritage. This integration includes using traditional symbols, motifs, and calligraphy reinterpreted in modern urban aesthetics. The dragon, a potent symbol in many Asian cultures, often appears in these artworks, symbolizing strength, wisdom, and the struggle for identity in a multicultural landscape. Additionally, incorporating calligraphy, with its flowing and dynamic forms, adds a layer of depth and connectivity to the heritage of these artists. This stylistic fusion is a nod to their roots and a bold statement of their dual identity as both Asian and American.

Themes of Identity and Representation

Central to the work of Asian American artists in street pop art and graffiti is the exploration of identity. These artworks frequently address the challenges of straddling two cultures, the feeling of being ‘othered’ in society, and the journey towards self-acceptance. Street art allows for a raw and unfiltered expression of these themes, resonating with audiences who share similar experiences. Furthermore, these pieces often serve as a tool for social commentary, highlighting issues of racism, stereotypes, and the need for more excellent representation of Asian Americans in mainstream media and art.

Impact and Legacy

The impact of Asian American artists in street pop art and graffiti artwork extends beyond the visual spectacle. These artists have contributed to a broader understanding and appreciation of Asian American culture and experiences. Their work challenges stereotypes and invites viewers to reconsider their perceptions of Asian American identity. Additionally, by occupying public spaces typically dominated by Western narratives, these artists assert the importance and validity of their stories in the American cultural tapestry. The legacy of these artists is not only in the beauty and uniqueness of their work but also in their contribution to the ongoing dialogue about diversity, inclusion, and representation in art.

Contemporary Trends and Future Directions

In recent years, there has been a noticeable shift towards digital integration and interdisciplinary collaborations in street pop art and graffiti by Asian American artists. Digital technology has opened new avenues for creativity, allowing for more intricate designs and broader reach. Collaborations with artists from different backgrounds and mediums have become more common, leading to innovative and multi-layered works that further enrich the dialogue between Asian American culture and street art. The potential for growth and evolution in this space is immense, with Asian American artists continuing to push boundaries and explore new ways to express their unique perspectives and experiences. The fusion of Asian American culture with street pop art and graffiti represents a powerful and dynamic force in the art world. It is a testament to the resilience, creativity, and diversity of the Asian American community. As this art form continues to evolve, it promises to enrich the cultural landscape further and foster a deeper understanding of the Asian American experience.
