Psychedelic Fusion- 03 Original Hand-Painted Multiple Spray Paint, Ink Mixed Media on Laser Cut Wood Panel ready to hang by Tavar Zawacki (Above) Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "The Psychedelic series were made in conjunction with my recent solo exhibition Remix. All of the Psychedelic series was designed with an emphasis on a sharp visual contrast. It's similar to 'Op-art' (Optical Art) which makes your eyes trip out. It's an effect that alters your perception as if you were on Psychedelic drugs. Some of the Psychedelic designs I made were featured in Remix, and some of them I created specifically for this series. This particular 'Sunset Strip' design I made with more complexity for my solo exhibition Remix. The Remix exhibition was about interchanging and swapping different cut patterns of the same design, in different colors to achieve the final piece. The Psychedelic series achieves a similar effect but in a more basic style of blocking out colors and allowing the negative space to reveal itself." - Above

The Doctor Who Silkscreen Print by Jillian Nickell Hand-Pulled on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Screenprint Artwork. 2013 Signed & Numbered on Back Limited Edition of 175 Artwork Size 16x20 Silkscreen Print of Doctor Who Tardis Police Box Spaceship & the Doc. From 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who Show. The Doctor Who Silkscreen Print by Jillian Nickell The Doctor Who silkscreen print by Jillian Nickell is a striking tribute to the 50th anniversary of one of the most influential science fiction series in television history. This limited edition hand-pulled screenprint, created in 2013, captures the essence of the Doctor and his iconic time machine, the TARDIS, in a visually immersive composition. Signed and numbered on the back, with only 175 pieces produced, this 16x20-inch artwork exemplifies the fusion of street pop art & graffiti artwork with the timeless appeal of science fiction. The intricate detailing and carefully chosen color palette make this a standout piece in both pop culture collectibles and contemporary art. The Visual Composition and Artistic Approach Jillian Nickell’s design presents a meticulously detailed depiction of the TARDIS alongside the Doctor, who stands confidently in the foreground holding his sonic screwdriver. The deep blue tones dominate the composition, emphasizing the mystery and vastness of space. The use of stippling and halftone shading techniques enhances the texture, creating depth and atmosphere within the artwork. The glowing effect around the TARDIS windows and the stars scattered throughout the background contribute to a dreamlike aesthetic, reinforcing the show’s themes of time travel and exploration. The Doctor’s expression is one of quiet determination, with his stance suggesting movement as if he is about to embark on another journey. The way Nickell captures the folds of his clothing, the illuminated tip of the sonic screwdriver, and the subtle shading on his face showcases a masterful attention to detail. The stylization of the TARDIS, with its softened edges and glowing outlines, gives the impression that it is materializing, a technique that mirrors the visual distortions often used in street pop art & graffiti artwork. This blending of realism with abstraction makes the print both dynamic and captivating. The Influence of Doctor Who in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Doctor Who has long been a source of inspiration in street pop art & graffiti artwork, with its iconic symbols appearing in urban murals, wheatpaste posters, and stencils around the world. The TARDIS, as a recurring motif, represents adventure, mystery, and the limitless possibilities of time and space. Street artists frequently incorporate its recognizable police box form into their work, often placing it in surreal or unexpected locations to create a sense of displacement and wonder. Nickell’s print captures this same spirit by emphasizing the ethereal qualities of the TARDIS while keeping the Doctor grounded in reality. The composition echoes the layering techniques found in street art, where multiple elements interact to form a cohesive narrative. The contrast between the solid figure of the Doctor and the more fluid, almost glowing TARDIS creates a striking juxtaposition that reinforces the tension between the known and the unknown. This duality is a fundamental aspect of both street pop art & graffiti artwork, where artists often use contrasts to provoke thought and emotion. The Significance of the Limited Edition Screenprint As a hand-pulled silkscreen print, The Doctor Who by Jillian Nickell carries a unique level of craftsmanship that digital reproductions cannot replicate. The layered application of ink on fine art paper gives the piece a tactile quality, making each print slightly unique. The limited edition nature of this artwork adds to its exclusivity, making it a valuable collectible for both fans of the series and admirers of street pop art & graffiti artwork. The 16x20-inch format allows for intricate details to be fully appreciated, whether displayed in a private collection or a curated gallery space. Nickell’s ability to merge a deep appreciation for the Doctor Who universe with the stylistic elements of modern screenprinting results in a piece that transcends typical fan art. This print is not just a celebration of the show’s 50th anniversary but also a testament to the lasting impact of its themes and imagery in contemporary urban art culture. By blending detailed illustration techniques with the energy of street pop art & graffiti artwork, Nickell has created a piece that captures both the nostalgia and the ongoing relevance of Doctor Who in the artistic landscape.

"I painted this arrow with rollers, latex paint, and spray paint onto an old barn. The barn was 30 feet wide x 30 feet tall at the pinnacle. The Funny Farm piece started with the help of my friend Denial, who invited me to participate in the Free 4 All Walls project in Canada last month. Denial had organized a massive barn for me to paint for the project. This was the largest arrow I've ever painted and the most coffee I drank over four days. Tim Horton's coffee should be illegal." - Above Embracing Rural Canvas: ABOVE's 'Funny Farm' Archival Pigment Fine Art Print Tavar Zawacki, the street pop art graffiti legend known as ABOVE, extended his artistic expression to rural landscapes with the 'Funny Farm' creation, culminating in a limited edition print that captures the essence of his most significant arrow piece. This limited edition archival pigment print on 310gsm fine art paper embodies ABOVE's innovative approach to street pop art, showcasing his distinct style on an unconventional canvas—an old barn. Released on January 23, 2016, the artist meticulously signed and numbered each edition piece, reflecting the authenticity and exclusivity that collectors and admirers of street art deeply value. The 'Funny Farm' artwork began as a monumental undertaking, with ABOVE utilizing rollers, latex paint, and spray paint to transform a 30x30 foot barn façade into an arresting visual statement. His choice of a rustic structure as the substrate for his iconic arrow illustrates his versatility as an artist and brings to light the dialog between urban street art and rural settings. This piece, part of the Free 4 All Walls project in Canada, is a testament to ABOVE's desire to push the boundaries of graffiti art beyond the city walls, engaging with a broader audience and environment. Technique and Inspiration Behind ABOVE's 'Funny Farm' The production of 'Funny Farm' was a labor-intensive process, demanding significant physical exertion and creative energy from ABOVE. Over four days, fortified by copious amounts of coffee, he poured his expertise into crafting an artwork as expansive in scale as it was in impact. His commentary on the addictive nature of Tim Horton's coffee injects a personal and humorous anecdote into the piece's narrative, connecting with his audience more intimately. This anecdote highlights the often-overlooked aspects of an artist's process—the external influences and the environment that can shape the creation of an artwork. ABOVE's meticulous technique and vibrant use of color in 'Funny Farm' reflect the hallmarks of his style, which is recognized worldwide. The barn, with its expansive sides, provided a grand canvas for ABOVE to articulate his vision, allowing the arrow to dominate the landscape, pointing skyward. The piece captured the attention of those who encountered it in person and managed to resonate through the limited edition prints that followed. The print serves as a visual narrative of ABOVE's journey, encapsulating the energy and spirit of the original mural. Cultural Significance of 'Funny Farm' in the Artistic Landscape The cultural significance of 'Funny Farm' within the artistic landscape is multifaceted. ABOVE's decision to create a print version of this rural mural allows for a wider dissemination of his work, bridging the gap between street art's fleeting nature and fine art's permanence. The limited-edition nature of the prints ensures that the essence of 'Funny Farm' is preserved and celebrated within the confines of private collections, galleries, and beyond. Furthermore, the artwork exemplifies ABOVE's commitment to street pop art and graffiti as accessible art that transcends geographical and cultural boundaries. By choosing a barn in a rural setting, ABOVE challenges the often-urban-centric focus of street art, proposing a universal language of creativity that can dialogue with any environment. 'Funny Farm' as a print is a continuation of that conversation, inviting a global audience to partake in the original mural's experience and reflect on the ubiquity of art in all facets of life. 'Funny Farm' is a vibrant representation of ABOVE's artistic prowess and innovative approach to street pop art and graffiti artwork. The print immortalizes a moment in ABOVE's career where his art scaled new heights, literally and metaphorically, and reminds us of the transformative power of art in any setting.

Visual Style and Iconic Characters This print features Saraiva’s instantly recognizable stick-figure characters dancing across the page in soft pink linework. Their wide, toothy grins, crossed-out eyes, and loose, jubilant movements express the carefree, flirtatious spirit that has defined his signature character, Mr. A, since his early graffiti appearances in Paris during the 1990s. The top-hatted figure paired with a flowing-haired partner reinforces the playful narrative of nightlife, celebration, and romantic spontaneity. Scattered stars, hearts, and motion lines energize the composition, giving the print a lively rhythm reminiscent of Saraiva’s street-based origins, where quick, expressive lines communicated joy in public spaces. Chateau Marmont and Cultural Connection Incorporating the iconic Chateau Marmont letterhead at the top, the print interlaces Hollywood mythology with Parisian graffiti culture. Located on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, Chateau Marmont has long been a sanctuary for actors, writers, musicians, and artists since opening in 1929. Its storied history of creativity and indulgence makes it a fitting backdrop for Saraiva’s exuberant characters. The handwritten “Paris” at the bottom serves as a bridge between two creative capitals — one steeped in American cinematic glamour, the other in European street culture — emphasizing Saraiva’s globe-spanning artistic identity. Mr. André Saraiva’s Influence in Contemporary Street Pop Art Born in Sweden in 1971 and raised in Paris, André Saraiva emerged from the city’s graffiti scene as one of its most prominent voices. His character Mr. A became a symbol of the joie de vivre that permeates his work, later expanding into galleries, editorial projects, murals, and luxury collaborations. The Chateau Paris Pink AP exemplifies his ability to merge elegance with spontaneity, bringing the carefree energy of graffiti into refined fine art contexts through meticulous letterpress technique. This Artist Proof stands as a vibrant testament to Saraiva’s playful approach and his lasting influence on Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, celebrating both the intimacy of hand-drawn lines and the cultural interplay between Paris and Hollywood.
