    Ben Frost Four Tablets Daily Archival Print by Ben Frost

    Four Tablets Daily Archival Print by Ben Frost Limited Edition on 310gsm Canson Cotton Rag Photographique Fine Art Paper Pop Graffiti Street Artist Modern Artwork. 2024 Signed & Numbered Print Limited Edition of 15 Artwork Size 11.7x11.7 Archival Pigment Fine Art Woman on a Pharmaceutical Package For Ritalin 10. Pharmaceutical Packaging as a Canvas in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Four Tablets Daily by Australian artist Ben Frost stands as a vivid and biting example of contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Executed as an archival pigment print on 310gsm Canson Cotton Rag Photographique paper, this 2024 limited edition artwork boldly merges the aesthetics of commercial pharmaceuticals with classic pop imagery. Frost’s distinctive style blends sleek, advertising-inspired visuals with themes of consumption, identity, and the numbing effects of modern medicine. Here, the artist uses an actual pharmaceutical box for Ritalin 10 as the foundation, transforming it into an ironic and haunting portrait of modern dependency and beauty ideals. The Fusion of Consumer Culture and Artistic Commentary Ben Frost, known for appropriating packaging, logos, and cultural symbols, uses this work to confront society’s relationship with prescription drugs and mass media. The print features the stylized face of a woman, her blue eyes and red lips reminiscent of mid-century comic book heroines, wrapped across the geometric restrictions of pharmaceutical packaging. The juxtaposition between her sensual, constructed gaze and the clinical language of Ritalin prescription labeling evokes tension between artificial pleasure and medical control. With the original packaging’s text left mostly intact, Frost allows the artwork to retain its original context—making the viewer uncomfortably aware that this isn’t just art, it’s also an artifact of real-world usage. Limited Edition Fine Art Meets Graffiti Pop Satire Printed in a highly exclusive edition of only 15 pieces, each one is signed and numbered by the artist. The dimensions of 11.7 x 11.7 inches make it a compact yet powerful artwork that distills Frost’s visual commentary into a sharp, satirical square. By using archival pigment methods on museum-grade cotton paper, the piece elevates the ephemeral nature of consumerism and street-level commentary into lasting fine art. The print exists at the intersection of collectible contemporary art and critical protest, channeling energy from both the gallery and the street. Ben Frost’s Distinct Role in Modern Pop and Graffiti Art Ben Frost is a Sydney-based street pop artist who has gained global recognition for his relentless critique of pop culture, pharmaceuticals, and consumer branding. His works have been exhibited in cities including London, New York, and Tokyo, and have become synonymous with post-pop critique. In Four Tablets Daily, Frost solidifies his place in contemporary graffiti pop art by weaponizing familiar formats and reshaping them into biting societal reflections. This piece, like much of his work, blurs the line between gallery presentation and street-level confrontation, forcing viewers to question their habits, their dependencies, and the carefully packaged visuals they consume daily.

  • Infinity Skull Archival Print by Sobekcis

    Sobekcis Infinity Skull Archival Print by Sobekcis

    Infinity Skull Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Bright White Fine Art Paper by Sobekcis Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2015 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 11.7x16.5 "Both of these pieces fit in the aesthetic that we have been working on in the last year and for both, we chose the approach of working half by hand and then working out the geometrical elements and colors on the computer. With the Infinity Skull piece, we wanted to work with asymmetrical piece as we have worked on before, and even though it wasn't in the first idea it somehow started to look like a tarot card. So we finished the work in that direction. For Crystalpecker, the idea was to use the same outline of the bird just flipped, and also in different color combinations to create again this kind of symmetry like with the skull. They we were just breaking it up with the background so it wouldn't be perfectly symmetrical." - Sobekcis

Face & Head
Pop art, street art, and graffiti art are dynamic genres that have left a notable impact on contemporary visual culture, with the face and head often emerging as central themes. This motif, universally recognized and instantly engaging, has been utilized by artists for its potent ability to convey a myriad of emotions, messages, and identities. The bold, provocative world of pop art first began to champion the face and head in the mid-20th century. Icons such as Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein used this motif to challenge cultural norms, presenting familiar faces - often celebrities - in unexpected ways. Warhol's multicolored depictions of Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, and other celebrities, for instance, elevated these figures to the status of mass-produced commodities, critiquing the consumerist culture of the time. Lichtenstein, on the other hand, drew from comic books, using the exaggerated expressions of his characters to comment on society's emotional sterility. Street art and graffiti, which originated from the urban underground, have also widely employed the face and head motif. These art forms often serve as a platform for social and political commentary, and the face's universality makes it a powerful tool for artists to communicate with their audience. Banksy, an anonymous England-based street artist, often uses stenciled images of faces and heads to articulate messages of peace, rebellion, or social justice. On walls, buildings, and streets, these faces become a form of visual language that transcends boundaries, resonating with diverse audiences. In the realm of graffiti art, the face and head motif often emerges in the form of tags, throw-ups, and pieces. Notably, the stylized signatures or 'tags' of graffiti artists frequently incorporate face-like elements, signifying the artist's identity in a cryptic yet visually compelling manner. Artists such as SEEN and Dondi White have showcased their unique vision through the depiction of faces and heads, highlighting their individuality amidst the vast graffiti landscape. From the stylized and glamorous portraits of pop art to the raw and rebellious depictions in street and graffiti art, the face and head motif has remained a constant. It serves as a conduit for human emotion and identity, speaking volumes about the society in which it is embedded. Through the different lenses of pop, street, and graffiti art, the face and head motif continues to challenge, provoke, and captivate, making it a cornerstone of these vibrant art movements.
