Covid No 19- Sarcelle 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 Sarcelle 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.

Enjoy - Standard Edition Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print on 310gsm Museum Natural Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition Print Artwork Size 18x21 "Recently, this piece was not allowed into a show I had wanted it to be in. In Dubai, they have strict rules on obscenity and vulgarity. I had been wanting to paint this piece for a long time and was looking for just the right image to use as a base in it. I finally found it amongst the bowels of the internet. This painting is a visualization of an amazing Bill Hicks joke from his stand-up routine. In his stand up Bill goes into great detail about the evils of advertising when left unchallenged and unchecked. He imagines and describes an ad in the not-so-distant future that one day may exist. This painting is of that ad. Bill Hicks was a fucking genius and I only hope I did his work the justice it deserves. He was so inspirational in forming my current mindset, a true artist and rebel. I take inspiration from different artists in different ways. I like to visualize things like songs or speech or comedy and play with the different elements I come up with. I have a very playful mind." - Denial Denial is a Canadian artist who experiments with aerosol and stencil art, while his main fields of interest are consumerism, politics and the human condition in today’s society. Since the culture of graffiti was gaining more and more popularity in the US and Europe, the taggers had to be increasingly original in order to stand out. The signatures became bigger, more stylized and more colorful.

This limited edition archival print is set on a 290gsm Moab Entrada fine art paper—a medium chosen for its durability and ability to hold vibrant pigments. As a Printer's Proof (PP) from 2020, it has a special place in the artist's portfolio, denoting a limited run personally overseen and marked by Denial himself. The piece's dimensions, an impactful 18x18 inches, provide a square canvas that compels the observer to confront the message head-on. The artwork is notable not only for its technical specifications but for its thematic boldness. It features a stylized depiction typical of Denial's work, with solid and contrasting colors and an iconic and enigmatic central figure. The text "Sorry Is Not Enough" boldly underscores the visual, serving as both a caption and a statement that amplifies the emotional resonance of the image. In street pop art, such directness is not uncommon; it's a genre that often seeks to communicate messages succinctly and powerfully, cutting through the noise to reach its audience. The Role of Printer's Proofs in Contemporary Street Art Printer's Proofs are traditionally part of an edition outside the regular numbered series, typically reserved for the artist's personal use. Their rarity and the artist's direct involvement in their creation often make them more valuable and sought after by collectors. Denial's "Sorry Is Not Enough" PP joins this tradition, allowing collectors to own a piece that comes directly from the artist's hand. The PP mark and Denial's signature confirm its authenticity and the print's status as a genuine piece of his oeuvre. In "Sorry Is Not Enough," Denial employs archival pigment in creating the fine art print, ensuring the longevity of the piece and the stability of its vibrant colors over time. Archival pigments are resistant to the fading and deterioration that often plague art materials, making them a favored choice for works meant to stand the test of time. This attention to longevity is a testament to the merging of street art's immediacy and the enduring nature of fine art. Street Pop Art as a Conduit for Social Commentary Denial's work, particularly this print, exemplifies street pop art's unique ability to serve as a conduit for social commentary. By leveraging the visual language of pop art—bold graphics, explicit imagery, and stark text—artists can communicate complex messages quickly and effectively. This piece, with its evocative facial expression and the simplicity of its accompanying text, invites reflection on the current societal discourse, encouraging the viewer to ponder the depth and sincerity behind apologies and the actions that necessitate them. "Sorry Is Not Enough" is a visual dialogue on accountability and the need for substantial action beyond mere words. This message is particularly resonant in an era where public figures and institutions are often called upon to address their wrongdoings. Denial's print captures this zeitgeist, challenging the viewer to consider what meaningful reparation might look like. In conclusion, "Sorry Is Not Enough" by Denial is a compelling example of how street pop art and graffiti artwork can encapsulate and communicate powerful sentiments. This piece not only reflects Denial's skill as an artist but also embodies the potential of street pop art to engage with and influence public discourse. Through his work, Denial continues to contribute to the rich tapestry of contemporary art, using his platform to provoke thought and inspire change.

Groundhog Day 731 Archival Pigment Fine Art Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Moab Entrada Paper by Artist Denial, Street Pop Art Graffiti Legend. 2022 Signed Limited Edition of 25 18x24. February 2 2020 Everyday Covid Lies With Bill Murray As A Reporter Based On The Movie. Groundhog Day 731: A Satirical Masterpiece by Denial Groundhog Day 731 is a provocative and visually striking archival pigment fine art print by Denial, the Canadian street pop art and graffiti artist Daniel Bombardier. This 2022 limited edition piece is part of Denial's ongoing exploration of societal themes, blending pop culture with critical commentary. Printed on 290gsm Moab Entrada paper, the artwork measures 18 by 24 inches and is limited to an edition of 25 signed and numbered prints, making it a highly sought-after collectible. The piece combines the absurdity of Bill Murray’s role as a weatherman in the iconic film Groundhog Day with the surreal and repetitive nature of modern life during the COVID-19 pandemic. A Pop Culture Twist on a Global Event Groundhog Day 731 uses the familiar face of Bill Murray as a satirical lens through which to examine the monotony and misinformation that characterized the early pandemic era. The calendar backdrop, repeating February 2, 2020, evokes a sense of unending repetition, much like the movie it references. Murray’s glazed expression and the altered title reinforce the themes of confusion, misinformation, and media distortion. By connecting this imagery to the repetitive cycles of misinformation and shifting narratives during the COVID-19 crisis, Denial critiques the societal impact of disinformation and how it shaped collective experiences of the pandemic. The Art of Social Commentary in Street Pop Art Denial is known for his ability to infuse humor and critique into his work, and Groundhog Day 731 is no exception. The use of Murray’s character as a metaphor highlights the surreal nature of modern media consumption, where each day often feels like a recycled version of the last. Denial’s work transcends mere visual appeal by embedding layers of meaning that address both personal and collective experiences. The vibrant red background and bold graphic elements draw from graffiti artwork, while the high-resolution pigment printing technique adds a refined edge. These elements create a piece that is both accessible and deeply thought-provoking, embodying the ethos of street pop art. Denial’s Impact on Contemporary Art Groundhog Day 731 exemplifies Denial’s unique approach to street pop art, where humor, nostalgia, and critique collide to form impactful social commentary. His work, rooted in the aesthetics of graffiti artwork and pop culture, offers a platform for examining contemporary issues with sharp wit and visual flair. This limited edition print is not only a commentary on a specific moment in time but also a broader reflection on the cyclical nature of human experience in a media-saturated world. By combining bold visuals with timely commentary, Denial continues to solidify his status as a leading voice in modern urban art.

American Daydream- Foil PP Printer Proof Limited Edition 9-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on 10pt Lava Foil Holographic Fine Art Paper by Artist Denial. PP Printers Prood 2021 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition 9-Color Screen Print on 10pt Lava Foil Holographic Fine Art Paper Size: 18 x 24 Inches Release March 09, 2021 Denial's "American Daydream-Foil" in the Landscape of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork "American Daydream-Foil" by the artist Denial, also known as Daniel Bombardier, is a thought-provoking piece encapsulating the spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork. As a Printer's Proof (PP) limited edition, this 9-color hand-pulled silkscreen print is a rare and collectible piece of art, released on March 09, 2021. The use of 10pt lava foil holographic fine art paper gives the artwork a mesmerizing quality, with its reflective surface creating a sense of depth and movement that enhances the visual impact of the piece. The artwork's size, 18 x 24 inches, is substantial and ideal for capturing the intricate details and vibrant colors that Denial employs. Each print in this limited edition is signed and marked PP by the artist, denoting its exclusivity and the artist's direct involvement in the creation and approval process. The holographic effects of the lava foil paper interact with the silkscreen ink, resulting in a dynamic piece that changes with the viewer's perspective and the surrounding light. 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 way the artwork's appearance changes with light and angle can be seen as a metaphor for the shifting nature of this dream and the elusive pursuit of happiness within modern American culture. 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. It bridges the gap between the rebellious origins of street art and the refined techniques of fine art printing, creating a piece that is both a statement and a spectacle. As with much of Denial's work, the piece is imbued with layers of meaning, challenging viewers to look beyond the surface and consider the more profound commentary on the culture surrounding them. In contemporary art, "American Daydream-Foil" stands as a vibrant example of how traditional pop art motifs and modern techniques can come together to create something that reflects and reacts to the society from which it springs.

Street Pop Art and Its Role in Cultural Discourse Street pop art, as a hybrid of pop art's focus on mass culture and street art's raw, public-facing expression, has become an influential force in cultural discourse.

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.

American Daydream- Foil Limited Edition 9-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on 10pt Lava Foil Holographic Fine Art Paper by Artist Denial. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 30 9-Color Screen Print on 10pt Lava Foil Holographic Fine Art Paper Size: 18 x 24 Inches Release March 09, 2021 Denial's "American Daydream" and Its Reflection on Modern Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork "American Daydream - Foil" by the artist Denial is a potent representation of contemporary street pop art and graffiti, merging commercial aesthetics with a subversive edge. Released on March 09, 2021, this limited edition print is a significant piece that comments on the nature of American culture and the commodification of the American dream. Limited to a run of just 30 pieces, this 9-color hand-pulled silkscreen print on 10pt lava foil holographic fine art paper is a testament to the exclusivity and precision of Denial's work. Measuring 18 x 24 inches, "American Daydream - Foil" is a visual spectacle that dazzles with its reflective foil background, creating a dynamic interplay of light and color that challenges the viewer's perceptions. The use of lava foil holographic paper is particularly striking as a metaphor for the American psyche's multiple, often contradictory, layers. Denial's piece captures the essence of pop art through its use of a familiar comic style juxtaposed with a psychedelic palette that seems to shift and shimmer with the viewer's movement. The artwork features a crying female figure, a recurring motif in pop art, evoking the emotional disconnect between reality and the pursuit of happiness within the framework of the American dream. Denial's signature style incorporates bold, graphic elements and a keen sense of irony. By using silkscreen printing, a technique popularized in pop art by artists like Andy Warhol, Denial connects with the roots of the movement while pushing its boundaries through modern materials and themes. Contemporary Commentary through Limited Edition Art Denial's "American Daydream - Foil" is more than a visually stunning piece; it is a commentary on the glossy veneer of American life and the underlying complexities that the facade conceals. Each of the 30 prints is signed and numbered by the artist, adding a layer of authenticity and collectibility that is highly valued in the street pop art and graffiti art communities. Collectors and admirers of Denial's work appreciate the aesthetic qualities of his prints and the thought-provoking messages they convey. The limited edition nature of "American Daydream - Foil" symbolizes the street pop art scene's transition from ephemeral street murals to coveted fine art pieces. Denial's decision to release such a small edition underscores the desire to maintain the exclusivity and integrity of the piece. This principle is often at the heart of street pop art and graffiti artwork. In the hands of collectors, these prints are not merely decorative items but are held as cultural artifacts that encapsulate a moment in time and a particular sentiment or critique. In essence, Denial's work exemplifies the evolution of street pop art and graffiti artwork into a form that reflects and is critical of the culture it arises from. "American Daydream - Foil" serves as a mirror to society, reflecting the complexities of the American experience through the lens of pop art. It is a bold statement on the nature of dreams and reality, commercialism, and the individual's place within the broader tapestry of society. The work's limited edition status ensures that it remains a distinctive and sought-after piece within the dynamic world of contemporary art.

His work, in other words, is inviting the viewer to re-imagine our dystopian society as a way of confronting it, with humor and irony as the biggest tools of the artist.

Covid No 19- Mauve 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 Mauve 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.

Let's Burn It All!- Standard Limited Edition 8-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on 140lbs French Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2019 Signed Limited Edition of 75 Artwork Size 18x24 DENIAL is a Canadian artist whose work critiques consumerism and the human condition. Though based in Windsor Ontario, DENIAL spends much of the year traveling and exhibiting throughout Canada and the USA, having done solo shows in Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Toronto, and Vancouver. 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.

In the world of Denial, memory is important, because it is the basis of his work, as it nostalgically encourages the audience to engage with it. 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.

With humor and nostalgia, you can open up communication. I’ve done that for years, 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.
