Jamie Reid Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative Silkscreen Print by Jamie Reid
Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative Silkscreen Print by Jamie Reid Hand-Pulled on Wove Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2020 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 250 Artwork Size 17x24.5 Silkscreen Print of Elizabeth II Queen of England In Demonic Style With Words "God Save Great Britain" Art Car Boot Fair Edition "Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative" is a striking silkscreen print by the renowned artist Jamie Reid, a limited edition piece produced with meticulous hand-pulled technique on fine wove art paper. Dated 2020, this exclusive artwork, available in only 250 signed and numbered editions, measures 17x24.5 inches, marking its significance in the realm of contemporary art. Delving into the details, the artwork portrays Elizabeth II, the Queen of England, in a provocative and almost demonic style. This avant-garde representation draws heavily from Reid's previous creations, especially his emblematic work for the Sex Pistols - "God Save The Queen." Notably, in "Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative," the Queen is adorned with the same blood diamond crown that she was pictured wearing for her 1977 Jubilee. This crown, beyond its historical significance, provides a visual linkage between Reid's iconic past work and this contemporary piece. The origins of this piece are rooted in Reid's collaboration for the Scorzayzee record titled 'Great Britain'. The artwork's integration of the phrase "God Save Great Britain" further reinforces its socio-political commentary, a hallmark of Reid's style. The work's debut at the Art Car Boot Fair speaks volumes about its place in modern pop and street art. Its edgy appearance, combined with Reid's historic association with punk aesthetics, ensures that "Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative" stands out as an emblematic representation of the ongoing dialogue between monarchy, pop culture, and societal critique in the realms of street and graffiti art.

Jamie Reid Boudica Is Coming HPM Silkscreen Print by Jamie Reid x James Cauty
Boudica Is Coming HPM Embellished 6-Color Silkscreen Print by Jamie Reid Hand-Pulled on Distressed 400gsm Reverse Optimum Grey Card Limited Edition Artwork. 2018 Signed By Both Artists HPM Acrylic Hand Embellished Stencil & Numbered Limited Edition of 350 Artwork Size 17x25 Silkscreen Print of Queen Boudica on Horse Chariot Next To Skyscraper Building Art Car Boot Fair Edition Hand Distressed "Boudica Is Coming HPM" is a breathtaking example of the convergence of contemporary street art and history, captured elegantly in a 6-color silkscreen print by the talented Jamie Reid. Released in 2018 and hand-pulled on a distressed 400gsm Reverse Optimum Grey Card, this piece serves as a testament to the transformative powers of art. It is not just a print, but a hand embellished, stencil-enhanced masterpiece, evident in the details of acrylic that dance across the surface. The presence of the signature of both artists and its limitation to a mere 350 pieces makes this artwork an exclusive collector's item, ensuring its revered status among art aficionados. The artwork's composition is both thought-provoking and rebellious. Queen Boudica, an emblem of British resistance against Roman occupation, is depicted on her iconic horse chariot. Yet, in a brilliant juxtaposition, she's positioned beside a modern skyscraper. This anachronistic pairing bridges ancient courage and modern defiance, reminiscent of the spirit of street art that challenges the conventional and provokes thought. Furthermore, the size of the artwork, measuring 17x25, strikes an impressive balance between dominance and subtlety, allowing it to make a statement without overpowering its surroundings. This print was introduced during the Art Car Boot Fair Edition, a venue that often showcases edgy and avant-garde pieces. The hand-distressed nature of the artwork adds a tactile dimension to it, grounding it in raw, authentic emotion, much like graffiti art on city walls. Jamie Reid's "Boudica Is Coming HPM" is a piece that captivates and intrigues, embodying the best aspects of pop and street art, ensuring its place as a hallmark in contemporary artistic expression.
