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.

  • Salvage Can 10 Original Spray Paint Can Sculpture Painting Eddie Colla

    Eddie Colla Salvage Can 10 Original Spray Paint Can Sculpture Painting Eddie Colla

    Salvage Can 10 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 Artistic Practice Eddie Colla's "Salvage Can 10" is a compelling piece that reflects the artist's adaptive creativity and resourcefulness, elements that are often at the core of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Created during a residency in China in 2018, this work is part of a series made from used spray paint cans, an example of the artist's ingenuity in repurposing materials at hand to make art. Standing at 3x8 inches, each original mixed media sculpture speaks to the improvisational spirit of street art and the artist's personal narrative. The "Salvage Can" series emerged from waiting for art supplies, showcasing Colla's ability to innovate with available resources. This circumstance led to the transformation of discarded spray cans into a medium for artistic expression. Colla's approach involved using spray paint and acrylics to craft a mixed-media sculpture that conveys a street-wise aesthetic and intricate detail. The fact that each can is signed and dated on the bottom adds authenticity and offers a tangible connection to the artist's engagement with his work. Symbolism and Technique in "Salvage Can 10" Colla's "Salvage Can 10" stands out for its haunting imagery, displaying a contemplative and intense figure. Using a spray can as a canvas is deeply symbolic within the context of graffiti art, signifying both the tool of the trade and the transient nature of the art form itself. The choice to repurpose used cans highlights themes of sustainability and the reclamation of materials, which aligns with the broader ethos of street art's ability to transform and reinvigorate urban environments. Impact on Street Art and Graffiti Culture Eddie Colla is recognized as a significant figure in the street art movement, and his "Salvage Can" series contributes to the rich tapestry of graffiti artwork. By taking an object that is so integral to the creation of street art and making it the subject of the art itself, Colla blurs the lines between tool and artwork, creator and creation. His work serves as a visual statement within the art community and as a physical artifact that embodies the process and environment in which street art is created. Collectibility of Eddie Colla's "Salvage Can" Series For collectors, each "Salvage Can" piece represents a unique slice of Eddie Colla's artistic journey. The series' creation story—borne out of a need to create with limited resources—resonates with the narrative of many street artists who often work with what they have available. This backstory, coupled with the intimate scale of the work, makes each piece desirable for those seeking to own a part of the improvisational and spontaneous energy that defines much of street pop art and graffiti artwork. "Salvage Can 10" encapsulates Eddie Colla's innovative spirit and ability to make profound statements through street art. His choice to work with used spray paint cans during an artist residency illustrates the authentic and impromptu essence that street art is known for. Each signed and original mixed media sculpture from this series is a testament to Colla's role as a graffiti legend and a creative force in contemporary art.

  • Salvage Can 11 Original Spray Paint Can Sculpture Painting Eddie Colla

    Eddie Colla Salvage Can 11 Original Spray Paint Can Sculpture Painting Eddie Colla

    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. It is a prime example of how street pop art can transcend traditional boundaries and redefine what a canvas can be, inviting a broader audience to engage with the street art movement in new and meaningful ways.

I often revisit it, and she has been the longest continuing character I've created. I often write backstories for these characters to help me create the pieces, but they are generally never shared with the viewer. The Goldfish Girl was born in mainland China and raised mostly by a single father. Her mother passed away when she was 18 months old from cancer. She was often very ill as a child and was eventually diagnosed with a compromised immune system disorder, although a precise diagnosis was never given. This is the reason for always wearing the mask and gloves. Her father bred Goldfish for a living and taught her that trade as a kid. They worked side by side and rarely had visitors because of her condition. Often being extremely ill and also losing her mother made her childhood difficult. As most children do, she tried to find a reason for her misfortune, a reason for why all this had happened to her and her father. Eventually, she believed that her illness and her mother's cancer were punishment by nature. A curse for toying with nature by breeding goldfish. Eventually, her father passed away as well. Needing to make a living and also to taunt fate she illegally immigrated to Hong Kong. There is a famous goldfish market in Mong Kok on Tung Choi street, but it's commonly called goldfish street. With a compromised immune system the most dangerous thing to her was other people. As a challenge to fate, she moved to one of the most densely populated cities in the world. She got a stall on Tung Choi Street. This is her challenge, to taunt fate and win, becoming the master of her own fate. These images are vignettes of her life in Hong Kong. I've never given the character a name. Sometimes she is pictured with a boombox because music becomes a central companion to her mostly solitary life. In the piece Cacophony I wanted her to literally be surrounded by the city. In some way, I think I tried to create a character that embodied a lot of traits I aspire to. To remind me.” - Eddie Colla

    Forsake PP Printer Proof Archival Print by Eddie Colla Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Fine Art Paper Pop Artist Modern Artwork. PP Printers Proof 2020 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 16x20.5 Archival Pigment Fine Art Insight into "Forsake" by Eddie Colla "Forsake" is a striking Printer's Proof (PP) archival print by Eddie Colla, a figure renowned in pop, street, and graffiti art. Created in 2020, this piece is part of a limited edition series, each signed and marked by Colla to signify its authenticity and exclusivity. The artwork is presented on 290gsm Fine Art Paper, a choice that ensures the print's longevity and high-quality appearance, a critical factor for collectors and enthusiasts of street pop art. Measuring 16x20.5 inches, the print is a substantial size that allows viewers to engage with the intricate details and profound messages. Eddie Colla's Convergence of Street Art and Fine Art Eddie Colla has an established reputation for merging the raw, expressive energy of street art with the refined techniques of fine art. "Forsake" is a testament to his ability to navigate these two worlds, creating works that are both accessible and profoundly thought-provoking. The print's archival pigment ensures that the rich textures and nuanced shades are preserved, capturing the ephemeral nature of street art in a form that can be appreciated over time. The imagery of a masked figure in "Forsake" speaks to the contemporary global experience, resonating with themes of identity, resistance, and the human condition. Symbolism and Narrative in Colla's Work In this piece, the subject's gaze is direct and unyielding, a powerful focal point amid smudged ink and abstract forms. The mask, a symbol now indelibly linked to the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, carries implications of silence, anonymity, and the struggle to communicate in a world where much of our expression is hidden. Colla's choice of text—"After forgetting you, they will call you now with their tricks"—introduces a narrative of rediscovery and the cyclical nature of societal memory and attention. The mixed media approach employed by Colla, blending photography with graphic elements, is a hallmark of his style. This method allows for a layering of meaning, just as layers of posters and graffiti accumulate on city walls, each telling a different story. "Forsake" invites the viewer to peel back these layers and explore the depth of Colla's narrative. This depth sets Eddie Colla's work apart, imbuing it with a sense of urgency and relevance, which is the power of street pop art. The artwork's message and medium reflect Colla's commitment to street pop art as social commentary. By bringing the transient art forms of the streets into the permanence of fine art prints, Colla bridges the divide between high art and public art. His work is a reminder that the messages conveyed through street art have a place in the ongoing cultural discourse, deserving of preservation and reflection. "Forsake" is a compelling piece within Eddie Colla's oeuvre, encapsulating his vision of street pop art and graffiti artwork as a form of visual impact and a means of communication and connection. It is a vibrant example of how street art can be elevated to a platform where it can be engaged on a level that transcends the boundaries of traditional art forms. Through works like "Forsake," Eddie Colla continues challenging perceptions, provoking dialogue, and fostering a deeper understanding of our collective experiences.

These recycled Spray paint cans were meant to be discarded inhalation vaccines that the World Health Organization had distributed during a global pandemic. The labels contain information about application dosage and active ingredients. I did a lot of research regarding previous pandemics, such as H1N1 (bird flu). The idea was to create an artifact as real as possible to resemble a failed attempt to contain a global pandemic." Eddie Colla Artistic Representation of Global Pandemics Eddie Colla's "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" mixed media artworks reflect a hauntingly prescient take on global health crises through the lens of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. This limited edition series, consisting of only 30 signed and numbered pieces, incorporates reclaimed items and spray paint cans to form sculptures that stand as poignant artifacts of apocalyptic possibilities. Created as part of two installations with fellow artist D Young V, "Epilogue" and "Memento Mori," Colla's sculptures were designed to represent discarded inhalation vaccines distributed by the World Health Organization during a fictional global pandemic. These installations explored themes of human vulnerability, societal collapse, and the interventions that come into play during such catastrophic events. The sculptures themselves, crafted to mimic the appearance and informational detail of real medical devices, resonate with the realism and urgency of a world grappling with the threat of pandemics. Colla's meticulous research into previous health crises, such as H1N1, informed the creation of this spray can sculpture. The labels on each canister are detailed with application dosage and active ingredients, contributing to the authentic feel of the pieces. This attention to detail not only enhances the visual impact of the sculptures but also embeds a narrative that ties them to the real-world context of public health emergencies.

By using reclaimed spray paint cans, Colla repurposes the mundane and aligns his work with the ethos of recycling and sustainability. These themes are increasingly relevant in contemporary discourse. These sculptures transform the spray can, a ubiquitous tool in street art, into a vessel of deeper meaning, reflecting on the throwaway culture and the implications of medical waste. This body of work also questions the efficacy and accessibility of healthcare interventions, highlighting the disparity between the intended purpose of medical devices and their actual implementation in crisis scenarios. Colla's sculptures suggest a history of use and urgency when these objects were vital to survival. The limited edition nature of these pieces emphasizes their uniqueness as artworks while alluding to the scarcity of resources that can occur in times of crisis.

Eddie Colla, an influential figure in street pop art and graffiti artwork, has carved a unique niche through his distinctive style and thought-provoking pieces. His journey in the art world is a testament to the transformative power of street art in communicating powerful messages and challenging societal norms. Colla's work, often characterized by its poignant and sometimes politically charged content, merges street art's raw, unfiltered nature with the vibrant and often satirical elements of pop art, creating a genre that resonates deeply with a diverse audience. At the heart of Colla's work is a deep-seated commentary on identity, resistance, and the human condition. His art, which often features masked figures, is a metaphor for the anonymity and uniformity imposed by societal and political structures. These faceless yet expressive figures have become a hallmark of his style, capturing the attention of art enthusiasts and casual observers alike. This recurring theme establishes a visual signature and prompts viewers to reflect on their place within society's narrative.

Colla's Influence on Urban Landscape and Public Discourse

Colla's impact on the urban landscape extends far beyond the aesthetic. His murals and installations in various public spaces serve as catalysts for public discourse. By choosing locations often overlooked or underrepresented, he brings attention to neglected areas, turning them into canvases that spark conversation and community engagement. This strategic placement of art in public spaces is integral to the ethos of street art and is a cornerstone of Colla's practice. It democratizes art, taking it out of traditional galleries and into people's everyday lives, thereby making art accessible and relatable to a broader audience. His works are confined to the streets and find resonance in galleries, showcasing the blurring lines between street art and fine art. This crossover is significant in the context of street pop art and graffiti artwork, as it challenges the conventional hierarchies and norms of the art world. Colla's ability to navigate these two worlds – the street and the gallery – speaks to his art's versatility and universal appeal.

Techniques and Artistic Innovations

Eddie Colla's technique blends traditional graffiti art methods and innovative approaches. He employs stenciling, a widespread technique in street art, which allows for both precision and rapid execution, crucial in the often-ephemeral nature of street art. The use of stencils also introduces a mechanical element to his work, aligning with the themes of mass production and conformity often explored in his pieces. Alongside stenciling, Colla incorporates mixed media elements, including digital design and traditional painting techniques, showcasing his adaptability and willingness to experiment within his chosen medium. His artistic innovations lie in his techniques and his approach to subject matter and theme. Colla often integrates text and imagery, creating a visual and verbal dialogue. This interplay adds depth to his work, making it a visual experience and an intellectual engagement.

In summary, Eddie Colla's contribution to street pop art and graffiti artwork is marked by his distinctive stylistic approach, his impactful use of public spaces, and his innovative techniques.
