Purchase 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.

Purchase Sign 1 Limited Edition Archival Pigment Fine Art Prints on 300gsm Moab Entrada Rag Matte Fine Art Paper by Graffiti Street Art and Pop Culture Artist Eddie Colla. "Sign 1"  11x14 inches (28x36cm)  Archival pigment print on 300 gr Moab Entrada Rag Matte Fine Art Paper  edition size 50  Signed and numbered "Sometimes I make an image that I am always referring back to. This is one of those images. For as many times as I have tried to describe what it is that haunts me about this one, I have never been able to adequately describe why. These are the ones I never let go of because for me personally I can't really ever unravel the draw. In my opinion, on a very basic level that is what art is for. To communicate something or evoke something that you couldn't otherwise express with words or by some other means. I've never been able to translate this piece into a coherent explanation. It is solitary experience . Which is what makes it meaningful to me." -Eddie Colla

DISCLAIMER: THESE ARE ART PIECES, THEY ARE NOT MEDICAL DEVICES. Edition of 30 signed and numbered "I originally made these fake inhalation vaccines as props for 2 installations I did with D Young V, Epilogue and Memento Mori. The installations revolved around apocalyptic possibilities. In the case of these recycled Spray paint cans they were meant to be discarded inhalation vaccines that had been distributed by the world health organization 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

Purchase Cacophony Hand-Painted Multiple Archival Pigment Print on 3 Tiers of Laser-Cut Acrylic Panel ready to hang by Eddie Colla Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2020 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 25 Laser Cut Acrylic Artwork Size 18x18 "The Goldfish Girl was created almost a decade ago. 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
