Darien Birks Nu-Nile Archival Die Cut Print by Darien Birks
Nu-Nile Die-Cut Archival Pigment Fine Art Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Moab Fine Art Paper by Artist Darien Birks Urban Street Artwork. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 25 Artwork Size 16x16 "I think these images belong on a stamp because of their nostalgic value amongst those that grew up in a community similar to my own. The thought of what they represent make most people smile when they see the art. They bring back memories of when we wanted to look our best, how we wanted to present ourselves to the world at that particular time. When one pomade didn't give us the look that we were trying to achieve (primarily waves), we'd switch to another one—it would create debates about which was the best. The bold colors and interesting use of typography on the tin can packaging were other details of interest, they were iconic, and I wanted to recapture that." –Darien Birks

MCXT- Monica Canilao x Xara Thustra Sing Songs HPM Risograph Print by MCXT- Monica Canilao x Xara Thustra
Sing Songs HPM Risograph Print by MCXT- Monica Canilao x Xara Thustra 2-Color Riso Print on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Holographic Detail And Cut Out HPM Embellished Limited Edition of 30 Artwork Size 14x8.5 Artistic Innovation and Technique The "Sing Songs HPM Risograph Print" by the creative partnership MCXT, consisting of Monica Canilao and Xara Thustra, is a standout piece within the street pop art and graffiti artwork genre. This two-color risograph print on fine art paper marries the rawness of street art with the precision of pop art, resulting in a limited edition artwork that is both exclusive and expressive. The risograph printing technique utilized in this series is notable for its environmentally friendly approach and capacity to produce vibrant, saturated colors reminiscent of screen printing but with a distinctive texture and depth. The "Sing Songs" print series, limited to 30 signed and numbered editions, features holographic details and cutouts, adding a tactile and visual dimension rarely seen in prints. These embellishments not only enhance the artwork's allure but also echo the hands-on approach of street art, where the texture and materiality of the work are integral to its impact. Cultural Resonance and Aesthetic At 14x8.5 inches, each piece in this series commands attention with its size and the intricacy of its components. The choice of a risograph print underlines the artwork's connection to grassroots movements and underground culture, as risograph printers have long been the tool of choice for zines and independent publications due to their cost-effectiveness and DIY charm. The "Sing Songs" print, with its interplay of only two colors, demonstrates how minimalist approaches can yield complex visual experiences, a common thread in street art and pop art philosophies. The Duality of Street Pop Art in Modern Times The collaboration of Canilao and Thustra for the "Sing Songs" print series is a dance of contrasts and harmonies. Canilao's penchant for folk-art-inspired motifs and intricate detail corresponds with Thustra's inclination towards bold, graphic statements. This duality reflects the broader street pop art movement, which often balances nuanced personal expression and comprehensive, accessible commentary. Symbolism and Narrative in Visual Art "Sing Songs" carries a narrative open to interpretation, much like the street art that can be found in the public domain, inviting passersby to engage with its imagery and symbolism. The inclusion of cutout elements may suggest breaking away from traditional boundaries or a peek into a different dimension, a hallmark of street art's disruptive nature. Each visual element chosen by the artists engages the viewer in a dialogue, a story unfolding within the confines of the paper. The "Sing Songs HPM Risograph Print" is a testament to the creative vision of MCXT and the power of collaboration within the street pop art and graffiti artwork scene. The use of risograph printing, coupled with the limited edition nature of the work, ensures that each piece remains a unique artifact, a snapshot of the artists' combined expressions at the time of its creation. This artwork celebrates the ingenuity and spirit of street art, manifesting as a collectible piece that holds within it the essence of an entire cultural movement.
