By concentrating on a certain idea, the technique or a style, by working on a certain piece for a long time frame, by totally engaging in this process, you get to know a lot about yourself and your personality. And this of course can be seen again in the works, that I create.I wanted to realize something special: The series of these three prints is chosen so that you can reproduce the entire spectrum of my work.

This archival pigment print on museum fine art paper presents the artist’s trademark illusion of sculptural lettering, where sharp, angular forms appear to emerge from and recede into the background. The play of light and shadow in this work enhances its monumental presence, making it a prime example of modern graffiti transformed into fine art. Three-Dimensional Lettering and Architectural Influence DAIM, born Mirko Reisser, is internationally recognized for his pioneering role in three-dimensional graffiti lettering. His approach integrates architectural precision with abstract movement, resulting in compositions that seem to break free from the two-dimensional plane. Shadow embodies this mastery by using layered depth, shading, and an interplay of light and darkness to create the illusion of floating structures. This piece utilizes a muted palette of grays, blacks, whites, and hints of blue, creating a stark, industrial aesthetic. The shadows cast by each fragment of the lettering give the impression that the composition exists within an atmospheric void, emphasizing the dynamic energy of destruction and reconstruction within the piece. The letterforms remain highly stylized yet nearly deconstructed, symbolizing the fluidity of identity and artistic evolution. Personal Evolution and Graffiti as Self-Reflection For DAIM, graffiti is more than a visual statement—it is a self-portrait. His approach to lettering has evolved over the decades, becoming increasingly complex and introspective. He has described his work as a reflection of personal growth, with each composition marking a distinct phase in his artistic and personal journey. Shadow represents a refinement of his three-dimensional technique, stripping down elements to their most essential yet impactful forms. The controlled chaos of the composition reflects a balance between movement and stillness, showcasing DAIM’s ability to create a harmonious tension within his work. The controlled drips along the edges of the piece allude to the organic roots of graffiti, reminding viewers of the raw, urban origins of the art form. The Impact of DAIM on Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork DAIM’s contributions to street pop art & graffiti artwork have established him as a leading figure in three-dimensional urban lettering. His work blurs the lines between graffiti, architecture, and contemporary abstraction, challenging traditional notions of what street art can achieve. Shadow stands as a testament to the depth and sophistication of graffiti as an art form, pushing the boundaries of lettering into the realm of fine art and modern design. By mastering light, perspective, and structure, DAIM has elevated graffiti into a fully immersive visual experience, leaving an indelible mark on the art world.
