Coco Chanel Riskoleum Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Print on Coventry Rag Archival Paper by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Risk. AP Artist Proof Signed & Marked AP Giclee Print on Coventry Rag Archival Paper. A special commission print for LA Fashion week 2017, dated 2016. Hand-signed & numbered. 18x14in Riskoleum: Fashion Meets Graffiti in a Limited Edition Tribute The Coco Chanel Riskoleum limited edition print by graffiti pioneer Kelly Graval, known as Risk, captures the energy of fashion and street culture in one striking composition. Created as a special commission for LA Fashion Week 2017, the piece merges the high-fashion elegance of Chanel with the gritty authenticity of spray can iconography. Measuring 18 by 14 inches and printed on Coventry Rag archival paper, this artist proof giclée is hand-signed and marked AP, reflecting the collectible nature of both the subject and the medium. In classic Risk style, it transforms a utilitarian object—the spray can—into a canvas for fashion commentary. Risk’s Signature Fusion of Color and Culture Risk emerged from the graffiti scene in Los Angeles during the 1980s and became a central figure in bringing graffiti from the streets into galleries. His work often plays with the aesthetics of branding, color theory, and popular symbolism. The Riskoleum series, a parody of commercial paint brands, is one of his most recognizable contributions to the crossover of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork into the mainstream art world. With the Coco Chanel edition, Risk injects luxury into this urban framework, blending the iconic elegance of Chanel with the rawness of aerosol culture. The spray can becomes a metaphor for self-expression, empowerment, and redefinition of style. The Dialogue Between Fashion and Graffiti The artwork does more than just feature the Chanel name. It represents how graffiti artists have reimagined traditional fashion tropes through the lens of street culture. The stencil-style layering, color fields, and spray techniques used in the Riskoleum format contrast sharply with the legacy of haute couture. Yet, it is precisely this tension that gives the work its power. The overlay of Coco Chanel’s influence on a street tool of expression invites reflection on how style evolves from both sidewalk and runway. Risk shows that graffiti and high fashion are not opposites, but collaborators in a new visual era. A Celebrated Edition for Collectors and Culture Enthusiasts As an artist proof from a limited run, this Coco Chanel Riskoleum print stands as both a critique and celebration. Commissioned for a prominent fashion event, it connects the world of design with the rebellious edge of graffiti. Printed on Coventry Rag paper using archival inks, the giclée process gives depth and longevity to the piece, while preserving the vibrant layers that Risk is known for. The work is not just a visual pun—it is a statement about individuality, beauty, and the power of art to cross cultural boundaries. Risk continues to shape the conversation around Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, proving once again that style can be both sprayed and sewn.

Mighty Vibras Offset Lithograph Print on Wood Panel by J Balvin x Matt Gondek with Tote Bag Limited Edition Graffiti Street Pop Artwork. 2018 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 300 Artwork Size 14x23 Tattooed Up Astro Boy with Chanel Glasses. Bag Has Minor Spot Staining in Upper Area. Artwork Perfect to Near Perfect. J Balvin x Matt Gondek Cultural Synthesis in Street Pop Art The "Mighty Vibras" offset lithograph print on a wood panel is a dynamic fusion of music, street culture, and contemporary art. A collaborative piece by Colombian reggaeton superstar J Balvin and Los Angeles-based artist Matt Gondek, this artwork captures the essence of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. Released in 2018, the limited edition of 300 signed and numbered pieces reflects the global influence of urban art forms and the increasingly porous boundaries between art, music, and fashion. The "Mighty Vibras" piece vividly portrays a tattooed-up Astro Boy, complete with Chanel glasses, a symbol of luxury infused with urban grit. This character, an icon of Japanese manga, is reimagined through the lens of street culture and high fashion, signifying the interconnected nature of global pop culture. Gondek's deconstructive style, known for taking apart characters and piecing them back together, is evident in the artwork's fragmented features, which are visually arresting and thematically resonant. J Balvin's influence on the piece brings a cross-cultural element that is palpable in the artwork's bold colors and the inclusion of the word "Familia" tattooed across the character's chest, a nod to the themes of kinship and belonging that pervade Balvin's music. The size of the artwork, at 14x23 inches, makes it a statement piece that stands out in any setting, from a casual living room to a high-end gallery. Intersection of Art and Merchandise Accompanying the print is a tote bag featuring the same design, highlighting the growing trend of art becoming wearable and usable in daily life. This approach to art merchandise expands the artwork's reach beyond the traditional confines of the art world, allowing it to become a part of the consumer's everyday experience. The tote bag is a mobile canvas, spreading the visual impact of the "Mighty Vibras" artwork to a broader audience. The synthesis of J Balvin's musical heritage and Matt Gondek's artistry in "Mighty Vibras" exemplifies the potential of collaboration across different creative industries. It also illustrates the power of street art to transcend its origins, infiltrating mainstream culture and fashion and becoming an emblem of contemporary lifestyle. "Mighty Vibras" is more than just an artwork; it is a cultural artifact that encapsulates the spirit of the times. It stands as a testament to the creative synergy between J Balvin and Matt Gondek, blending street art's raw energy with pop culture's gloss and, in doing so, creating a new visual language that speaks to a diverse, global audience. The limited edition nature of the piece, along with its associated merchandise, cements its status as a collectible item that holds both artistic and cultural value.

Covid No 19- Rose 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 Rose 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.

High Fashion Chanel Blotter Print by Denial- Daniel Bombardier Limited Edition Fine Art Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper. 2024 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 35 Archival Pigment Print on Perforated Blotter Paper Size: 7.5 x 7.5 Inches Release: April 19, 2024, Limited blotter editions are hand-perforated by Zane Kesey. Chanel Reimagined in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork The unmistakable double C logo of Chanel has long stood as a symbol of luxury, status, and timeless fashion, yet in the world of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, it takes on a new identity. Chanel, founded by Gabrielle Chanel in France during the early twentieth century, revolutionized fashion through clean lines and modern elegance. In the context of urban art, its pristine image is often recontextualized as a critique, satire, or celebration of wealth culture and identity. Artists like Daniel Bombardier, also known as Denial, use this emblem to explore the commodification of status and the blending of luxury and rebellion. Luxury Disrupted: Daniel Bombardier’s Artistic Commentary In 2024, Daniel Bombardier released a limited edition blotter paper artwork titled High Fashion Chanel. With an edition of only thirty-five, this archival pigment print was applied on hand-perforated blotter paper by Zane Kesey, a figure associated with psychedelic culture. The medium alone offers a layered context, hinting at altered states and counterculture movements. The bold Chanel logo dominates a minimalist yet highly repetitive background, turning the monogram pattern into both a celebration and subversion of consumerist branding. What traditionally represents refinement and class is reframed as something mass-produced and industrial, raising questions about the values consumers assign to logos and heritage. Visual Language and the Power of the Symbol The use of blotter paper in this edition is more than a stylistic decision. Its association with underground psychedelia adds another layer to the interpretation, aligning the visual impact of the work with ideas of transformation, critique, and satire. Bombardier is known for blending commercial aesthetics with provocative messages, and this Chanel print is no exception. The composition presents a clean layout that invites viewers to engage with how deeply symbols have embedded themselves into culture. The repetition of the Chanel monogram mimics advertising saturation, while the clean lines reference the brand's original design ethos, creating tension between reverence and critique. Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Meets Fashion Iconography High Fashion Chanel reflects how street-level art forms engage with fashion not only as design but as commentary. This blotter print stands as both an homage and interrogation of luxury’s influence on identity, class, and aspiration. Denial’s work joins a broader conversation where fashion logos are used as tools for expression, resistance, or humor in urban visual culture. Through precise design, unexpected mediums, and intentional appropriation, Chanel’s image is reworked into something both familiar and radically transformed—making it an ideal subject within the language of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.
