The Empresses- H10-2 Nūr Jahān Pop Street Artwork Limited Edition Giclee & Giltter Screenprint Print on Aluminum Sheet by Urban Graffiti Modern Artist Damien Hirst. 2022 Signed & Numbered In Verso on Label Limited Edition of 3041 Artwork Size 39.37x39.37 Giclee & Giltter Screenprint Print on Aluminum Sheet Decoding the Vivacity of 'The Empresses - H10-2 Nūr Jahān' Drawing inspiration from the multifaceted Mughal empress, Nūr Jahān (1577-1645), the artwork embodies her diverse talents and influence. Though she became Emperor Jahāngīr's 20th wife in 1611, she was never officially an empress. Despite this, Nūr Jahān demonstrated her power by minting coins and issuing royal decrees. Adept in diplomacy, hunting, and advising, she was also a gifted architect. Her design contributions to her parents' tomb in Agra are thought to have inspired the iconic Taj Mahal. The "Nūr Jahān" piece showcases intricately symmetrical patterns of single and paired wings in vivid shades of red and black. These wings radiate from the center, extending vertically, horizontally, and diagonally to form mesmerizing kaleidoscopic designs. The central square highlights the principal pair of wings, while the surrounding patterns seem to recede, drawing the viewer's attention to the center. This meticulous, layered composition echoes Nūr Jahān's architectural prowess, and the magnificent mosaic tiles grace the Agra tomb. As one contemplates "Nūr Jahān," the artwork transforms continuously, unveiling new sequences of extraordinary wing patterns as the viewer's perspective shifts. This is especially evident with the large black and red wing pairs that encircle the composition's outer edges, arranged in an irregular frame. Through this technique, the artist instills a sense of dynamism and life in the otherwise orderly composition, capturing the essence of the butterflies in various stages of flight, much like the diverse nature of the empress herself. In street pop art, Damien Hirst's 'The Empresses - H10-2 Nūr Jahān' stands as a riveting homage to the influential and unofficial empress of the Mughal empire. This giclee and glitter screenprint on aluminum captures the essence of Nūr Jahān's multifaceted life, depicting the vibrancy and depth of her character through a symphony of red and black butterfly wings. Born as the urban graffiti modern artist Damien Hirst, the British artist's creation is a limited edition piece, signed and numbered as a testament to its exclusivity and importance in contemporary art. The Artistic Symphony of Wings and Influence The artwork's composition, featuring meticulously arranged butterfly wings, is a testament to Nūr Jahān's architectural acumen and her role in shaping Mughal aesthetics. The central square structure, highlighted by the principal pair of wings, draws the viewer's gaze inward, like the entrance to an intricately designed Mughal structure. The wings, extending in all directions, create an effect of perpetual motion, symbolizing Nūr Jahān's dynamic presence in a male-dominated court. The choice of colors, red and black, is striking and purposeful, evoking the power and determination that Nūr Jahān wielded as she navigated the intricacies of Mughal politics and culture. The layered patterns that recede from the center mimic the complexity and depth of Nūr Jahān's influence on Mughal architecture, such as the exquisite tile work of her parents' tomb in Agra. It is a visual narrative that mirrors the empress's life – a constant oscillation between the foreground and the background, between being seen and unseen, much like the varying visibility of the butterfly wings, depending on the viewer's standpoint. A Dynamic Reflection of a Multifaceted Empress Damien Hirst's 'The Empresses - H10-2 Nūr Jahān' is an artistic endeavor and an immersive experience. The artwork unfolds new patterns as the viewer moves, reflecting the ever-changing nature of existence and perception. This transformative aspect of the piece resonates with the transformative era of Nūr Jahān's influence, where she redefined the role of women in leadership and left an indelible mark on her time's cultural and architectural landscape. The outer edges of the composition, with the large wing pairs arranged in an irregular frame, impart a sense of vitality and movement, much like the empress known for her hunting prowess and diplomatic skills. This technique employed by Hirst infuses life into the structured composition, creating a sense of multidirectional flight and reflecting the empress's omnipresence in the various facets of Mughal governance and culture. Through this limited edition street pop art and graffiti artwork, Damien Hirst encapsulates the spirit of Nūr Jahān, presenting her not merely as a historical figure but as an emblem of power, creativity, and resilience. The piece stands as a modern tribute to her life, inspiring contemporary viewers to explore and appreciate the rich tapestry of history through the lens of street pop art.

Rotations #2 Limited Edition 5-Color Silkscreen on 140lbs Archival Fine Art Paper by Tony Clough Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "These two print editions really only exist as original prints but were inspired by my recent obsession with squares and other simple geometric shapes. I have several original paintings that are available that slightly resemble this style but they are much more stylistic in terms of texture and color.Most of my work is purely aesthetic and non-representational, I try to make art out of texture and color until I feel that it would be something I would like to hang on my own wall in the hope that others would share my taste." - Tony Clough

Untitled Simulator Interface III Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by J Demsky pop culture LSD artwork. "My first experience with the Lsd was if I remember correctly about 95-96. It was a small dose, probably a quarter of a "Lucas Duck" that were quite soft, the second was the same dose with a “Bicycle" and the experience was also smooth.Until one day the "Simpson double drop" appeared and it was different. We took half to be sure of the trip and we did not notice anything after almost an hour (at that time people also sold them fake) so we decided to take the other half, imagine what happened.We lost control and my friend ran away, I supposed to go his house and I did the same. But I remember it took me a while to open all three doors since the key was bent as if it were a magic trick.The first thing I did was turn on the TV and there was the movie "The Shining", I was only able to see some scenes but I remember the second time I watch it I thought they had deleted some scenes, you can imagine...Until dawn it was very intense. I think this was the last use I did LSD in a very long time.Now I can say that I have never dedicated myself to selling drugs, but I was very good at faking things and spent a while making "replicas" of sheets of some that were very soft (like “Marilyn Monroe’s" or "Strawberries”) I even used my own designs of things that he painted at that time.In these strange days I feel with a smile remembering those experiences and adding a double drop to these new sheets. :)" - J Demsky

Angles Of Elevation Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 300gsm Fine Art Paper by Vans The Omega Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "‘Angles of Elevation’ was the prize geometric piece of my recent show "Into The Light" and is the amalgamation of the past 7 years of trial and error, research and development painting geometric illusion within my fine artworks both in the studio and on large scale walls. I think this piece represents discovery within and the journey we make during life. The science behind geometry in the healing arts isn’t readily taught but is something I have spent many years studying and being open to on a personal and professional level. My belief and knowledge of the healing power that Art creates is a large goal of my practice in Art, both for others and myself alike. Apart from the piece serving an aesthetic appeal, the greatest aim is to reveal something about yourself while taking in the work. Visually this work came together through a series of visions that I have strived to fulfill. The dimension of this piece was my greatest challenge while giving a mixture of etheric and harder edges to push and pull the eye through space so that harmony is met." - Vans The Omega
