    Cey Adams Shell PP Archival Pigment Print by Cey Adams

    Shell PP Printers Proof Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Cey Adams Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. PP Printers Proof Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x18 Shell Archival Print by Cey Adams "The whole idea behind my Trusted Brands series was that I wanted to revisit many of the iconic logos of my youth to reconnect to familiar things. These pieces are mostly made of handmade fiber papers from India and Nepal. I wanted to do something rivaling my friends who used spray paint and connected with my graffiti roots, but I didn't want to do what everybody else did. I thought it would be interesting to challenge myself to use a medium I have never used before, and collage spoke to me." - Cey Adams. Cey Adams' "Shell" - A Convergence of Branding and Art Cey Adams, a foundational figure in graffiti and street pop art, presents a compelling piece in his "Shell PP Printers Proof Limited Edition." This work is part of Adams' "Trusted Brands" series, where he revisits the emblematic logos that marked his youth. The print, an 18x18 archival pigment on fine art paper, showcases his exploration into collage, setting him apart from his contemporaries who favored spray paint. This piece is a Printer's Proof, signed and marked by Adams, adding a layer of exclusivity and collectibility. Adams' choice to use handmade fiber papers from India and Nepal lends an organic texture that contrasts with the commercial sharpness of the Shell logo. His work is a nod to nostalgia and a dialogue between past and present, consumerism and craftsmanship. The "Shell" piece stands out as a testament to Adams' ability to innovate within his graffiti roots while pushing the boundaries of his artistic expression. In Adams' own words, his college journey was challenging to escape the graffiti norm. His "Trusted Brands" series, including the "Shell" print, reflects this personal and artistic quest to connect with familiar symbols uniquely, embodying the essence of modern pop art within the urban landscape.

The days when our leaders looked out for the people's interests have become a thing of the past—replaced by the strong man who squashes the voices of dissent to set things straight. Money elects leaders; in return, they owe a debt to the people that put them in Power—enacting our new public policy of greed and gangster capitalism. We slowly accept corruption, Law slowly fades away, and people begin to feel like democracy and a fair and equitable society were always just an illusion, a dream from the past that never really even existed." -Cleon Peterson

Business Jobs & Work Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Depicting the Corporate Grind Through Street Pop Art and Graffiti

The bustling world of business, jobs, and work has often served as fertile ground for artists, especially within the realms of street pop art and graffiti. These forms of urban artistic expression have been used to comment on the monotony of the 9-to-5 lifestyle, the dehumanization within corporate structures, and the pursuit of success in capitalist societies. Street art, in particular, has a history of taking the pulse of the people, and in doing so, it frequently reflects on the world of work and its impact on the individual and collective psyche. Artists have utilized walls, sidewalks, and the very fabric of the city to showcase the oftentimes unglamorous reality of working life. Murals depicting endless rows of cubicles, faceless suits, and the iconic 'rat race' encapsulate the existential ennui that can accompany the daily grind. These works serve as a visual critique, providing passersby with a moment of reflection on their own work lives and the societal values placed on employment and productivity.

Artists Reflecting Work Culture in Their Street Art Narratives

Several street artists have made a name for themselves by consistently incorporating themes of business and work into their street pop art narratives. Their real names, countries of origin, and life stories often blend into their art, giving a personal touch to their social commentaries. By portraying figures trapped in the mechanics of their jobs or highlighting the absurdity of certain professional situations, these artists offer a mirror to the world of work that is rarely seen in corporate brochures or job advertisements. Their creative expressions range from large-scale murals to small, subtle interventions in public spaces. Often these works will feature individuals in suits, symbolic of the corporate world, placed in scenarios that are in stark contrast to their professional appearance. For example, an executive figure might be shown flying a kite or riding a carousel horse, symbolizing a longing for escape or simplicity amidst the complexities and pressures of professional life.

Street Pop Art as a Commentary on Economic Systems

Street pop art and graffiti often extend beyond personal narratives, commenting on broader economic systems and societal structures. In the context of jobs and work, these art forms can serve as powerful critiques of capitalism, consumerism, and the inequalities of wealth distribution. The street becomes a canvas for expressing discontent, raising awareness, and advocating for change. Through their art, street artists can inspire conversations about the future of work, the value of labor, and the definition of success. This form of art can be a call to action, encouraging viewers to rethink their roles within the workforce and the larger economic system. It can also serve as a form of solidarity, connecting individuals who share similar experiences or challenges within their professional lives. The beauty of street pop art and graffiti lies in its accessibility and its ability to reach a diverse audience, making it an effective medium for discussing the universal theme of work. The intersection of business, jobs, and work with street pop art and graffiti artwork reveals a complex narrative about the human experience. These artworks offer a poignant critique of the work culture that dominates modern life, challenging viewers to consider the impact of their professional pursuits on their personal identity and wellbeing. Through the lens of street art, the world of work is not only depicted but also dissected, providing a space for public discourse and reflection on what it means to work in today's society.
