Sister White Fox Letterpress Print by Yumiko Kayukawa Limited Edition on MEDIUM Graffiti Street Pop Artwork. 2024 Signed & Numbered Hand Deckled Limited Edition of 40 Artwork Size 8 x 10 in. 2-Color Letter Press on Hand-Deckled Coventry Rag Paper Letterpress Print Yumiko Kayukawa Sister White Fox Letterpress Print 2024 The 2024 Sister White Fox letterpress print by Japanese-born, Seattle-based artist Yumiko Kayukawa exemplifies her refined blend of traditional Japanese iconography, contemporary illustration, and the bold graphic sensibility associated with Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Produced as a signed and numbered limited edition of 40, this 8 x 10 inch print is executed in two-color letterpress on hand-deckled Coventry Rag paper, giving each piece a tactile, crafted presence. The soft emboss of letterpress printing heightens Kayukawa’s signature balance of elegance and contrast, further enhancing the print’s collectible appeal. Imagery Rooted in Myth and Modernity The composition features a serene female figure adorned with a fox mask, accompanied by a live white fox perched at her shoulder. Rendered in crisp black linework with accents of vivid red, the artwork evokes the Japanese folklore of the kitsune — mystical foxes known for intelligence, shapeshifting, and spiritual guidance. The woman’s poised expression and flowing hair intertwine with stylized cloud forms and cherry blossoms, symbols that echo both tradition and rebirth. Kayukawa’s minimal but deliberate use of red punctuates the composition with emotional intensity, drawing attention to the mask’s markings, the woman’s lips, and the subtle cords tying the scene together. Technique and Material Detail Printed on hand-deckled Coventry Rag, the piece carries the textured sophistication of fine art paper often used in high-end printmaking. The letterpress technique sinks the ink slightly into the fibers, producing a soft relief that complements Kayukawa’s clean, controlled linework. This method emphasizes the interplay of negative space and form, a hallmark of her visual language. The intimate scale reinforces the personal, almost devotional quality of the imagery, inviting close viewing to appreciate the subtle precision of the print. Yumiko Kayukawa’s Artistic Voice Born in Hokkaido, Japan in 1970, Yumiko Kayukawa has built a significant international following through her harmonious fusion of pop culture, anime-influenced stylization, and traditional Japanese motifs. Now working from Seattle, she continues to explore themes of femininity, independence, nature, and mythology through bold contrasts and emotionally charged symbolism. Sister White Fox reflects her ability to draw from centuries-old stories while shaping them into contemporary expressions of identity and strength. Within the sphere of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, Kayukawa’s prints stand apart for their narrative clarity and cultural resonance, offering viewers an encounter with myth reimagined for a modern world.

Sharp Tooth Bear ComplexCon Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami TM/KK Limited Edition Archival Print on Wood Skateboard Deck by Street Artwork Graffiti Artist. 2019 Limited Edition Skateboard Artwork Size 8x31 Skateboard Art Deck Brand New Perfect Condition 3x Deck Set Sharp Tooth Bear ComplexCon Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami: Pop Icons Reimagined in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork The Sharp Tooth Bear ComplexCon Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami is a 2019 limited edition release featuring archival pigment print transfer on a triptych of 8 x 31 inch natural wood skateboard decks. Distributed under Murakami’s TM/KK studio label and unveiled at ComplexCon, this set presents his iconic character Mr. DOB in a surreal, floating constellation of multicolored spheres and sharply jagged smiles. The artwork is pristine in condition and masterfully designed to span across all three decks, forming one unified image that vibrates with movement and mischief. A hallmark of Murakami’s crossover between high-concept Japanese art and subversive street aesthetics, this edition continues his exploration of visual identity through the lens of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Mr. DOB, Murakami’s long-standing alter ego and mascot figure, is featured here in its more evolved and chaotic form. Multiple Mr. DOB heads orbit across a gradient background shifting from teal blue to pale yellow, creating a dreamy atmosphere that clashes with the aggressive, shark-like teeth and multicolor psychedelic eyes embedded in each orb. These elements produce a feeling of both playful celebration and psychological unease. With influences from anime, manga, consumer branding, and the emotional dissonance of modern visual culture, Murakami’s sharp-toothed icon becomes both character and critique. His precise lines and cartoon-like distortion transform each floating head into a symbolic vessel for contemporary overstimulation and cultural fragmentation. Skate Culture Meets Pop Surrealism in Limited Edition Form Takashi Murakami’s choice to present this piece as a skateboard deck set is deliberate. Skate decks have long existed at the intersection of function and rebellion. In Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, the skateboard is more than a tool—it is a symbol of self-expression, disruption, and the tension between movement and visual impact. By translating his most recognizable character onto a surface born in subculture, Murakami activates new dimensions of accessibility and statement. The Sharp Tooth Bear set preserves the tactile honesty of the street while simultaneously operating as a luxury fine art object. The curved verticality of the decks allows the floating spheres to appear as if drifting in weightlessness, emphasizing the detachment and surveillance often associated with Murakami’s characters. Each panel maintains detail while contributing to the whole, creating a mural-like composition that bridges studio art and skate shop graffiti. The production quality—high-fidelity archival pigment on wood—maintains the integrity of the image while reinforcing its collectible status. These decks are built for permanence but born from a culture that values ephemerality. Character Mutation as Language in Murakami’s Visual System The recurring use of Mr. DOB across Murakami’s work symbolizes transformation, commercial identity, and visual overload. In the Sharp Tooth Bear deck set, the character’s expression is twisted into multiple forms, with exaggerated eyes, swirling patterns, and sharp jaws creating a sense of multiplicity and instability. This reflects a broader theme in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork where characters become signatures, avatars, and mythologies that evolve in public. Like graffiti tags, these characters act as a calling card—but Murakami amplifies them with color theory, compositional harmony, and emotional duality. Floating heads with smiles and snarls occupy the liminal space between joy and chaos. Their bright exteriors mask the grotesque, creating a paradox central to the experience of modern pop culture. These figures float in a void, disconnected yet expressive, much like the fractured media landscape Murakami so frequently interrogates. The decks tell a story of cultural mutation and psychological saturation through line, hue, and repetition. Takashi Murakami’s Skate Decks as Contemporary Cultural Icons Takashi Murakami, born in Japan in 1962, continues to challenge and redefine what Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork can be. His skate deck releases at ComplexCon push the boundaries of medium, bringing fine art to surfaces with street-level power. The Sharp Tooth Bear deck set serves as an entry point into Murakami’s philosophy of Superflat—where depth is compressed and visual meaning expands. With this 2019 release, Murakami reinforces that characters like Mr. DOB are not just visual gimmicks, but sophisticated tools for exploring the artificial, the emotional, and the psychedelic in a world oversaturated with imagery. These decks are not just collectibles—they are symbols of how visual art can mutate, float, and bite, all while maintaining a smile. They are the painted echoes of pop consciousness frozen in motion, crafted with intent, color, and a sharp set of teeth.

Flaming Skull Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami TM/KK Limited Edition Archival Print on Wood Skateboard Deck by Street Artwork Graffiti Artist. 2018 Limited Edition Skateboard Artwork Size 8x31 Skateboard Art Deck Brand New Perfect Condition Flaming Skull Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami: Skate Culture Icons in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Flaming Skull Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami is a 2018 limited edition triptych consisting of three 8 x 31 inch wood skateboard decks printed with a vibrant archival design. Issued through TM/KK and presented in brand new condition, this piece transforms the visual motifs of Murakami’s Superflat style into a collectible surface rooted in both urban rebellion and fine art tradition. The work features his signature smiling flowers and neon skulls engulfed in candy-colored flames, creating a frenetic collision of joy, death, and energy. It exemplifies the aesthetic and cultural fusion at the heart of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Murakami, born in Japan in 1962, is known globally for reimagining Japanese kawaii culture through contemporary art. In Flaming Skull, his recurring iconography is pushed to maximum saturation. The decks explode with pastel flames that dance between pinks, yellows, and blues, consuming and encircling the now-iconic wide-eyed flowers and stylized skulls. These elements are not randomly placed. The skulls nod to the transience of life while the grinning flowers, usually symbols of peace and cuteness, now float among the burning chaos. The contrast between innocence and destruction becomes a central visual tension. The skate decks act as both art objects and emblems of resistance, reinforcing how Murakami's work translates fluidly between gallery settings and street culture. Superflat Meets Skate: Murakami's Surfaces of Power The use of skateboard decks as a medium adds another dimension to Murakami’s Superflat philosophy, which compresses visual depth and collapses distinctions between high art and commercial design. In the Flaming Skull set, the decks function not only as a canvas but also as a cultural object—a symbol of countercultural identity, mobility, and rebellion. Skateboards have historically served as both mode of transport and personal billboard, making them ideal platforms for artwork that is as expressive as it is political. Murakami’s designs, printed seamlessly across the three decks, maintain a sense of cohesion while taking advantage of the vertical format and curvature unique to skateboards. His combination of illustrative clarity and chaotic form aligns with the structure of street graphics, often characterized by repetition, exaggeration, and intense color. Flaming Skull is not static. It evokes speed, spontaneity, and movement—qualities inherent to skateboarding and to graffiti. Symbolic Language and the Visual Noise of Urban Life This work amplifies Murakami’s ongoing exploration of symbolism, pop culture, and emotional intensity. The juxtaposition of flames and floral motifs mirrors how graffiti writers tag over advertisements, blending commercial and underground languages into something personal and uncontrollable. The skulls invoke cycles of life and death without morbidity, depicted in luminous tones that transform fear into fantasy. By placing these forms in riotous layers, Murakami crafts a surface that feels as alive as a street wall—an artwork where every inch pulses with energy and intention. Flaming Skull, like much of Murakami’s work, resists easy categorization. It channels anime aesthetics while referencing traditional Japanese painting. It uses joyful motifs in unsettling ways, exposing the volatility of contemporary life. The work's chaotic harmony is reflective of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, where cultural clutter becomes the material of revolution and emotional response. Takashi Murakami’s Street-Level Reach through Skateboard Art Murakami’s Flaming Skull Skateboard Art Deck Set encapsulates the global crossover between contemporary art and street expression. While he is firmly established within the art world, his use of materials like skateboards speaks to a different kind of power—one rooted in youth culture, physical movement, and accessible rebellion. These decks, though never meant to be ridden, carry the spirit of resistance and creativity that defines the spaces they visually occupy. By applying his most recognizable visual codes to skate culture artifacts, Murakami ensures that his work remains relevant, mobile, and responsive. Flaming Skull is a kinetic masterpiece of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, linking life’s fragility to joy, flame, and speed through a perfectly executed limited edition. It is not just decoration; it is a message burned into wood.

Flying Dob Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami TM/KK Limited Edition Archival Print on Wood Skateboard Deck by Street Artwork Graffiti Artist. 2018 Limited Edition Skateboard Artwork Size 8x31 Skateboard Art Deck Brand New Perfect Condition Flying Dob Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami: Japanese Iconography in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Flying Dob Skateboard Art Deck Set by Takashi Murakami is a limited edition fine art print on a triptych of 8 x 31 inch wood skateboard decks released in 2018 under the TM/KK studio imprint. Each deck presents a fragment of Murakami’s character Dob, whose energetic expression and surreal construction define a central part of his aesthetic vocabulary. This set, presented in brand new condition, merges Murakami’s globally recognized Superflat style with the raw and accessible surface of skate culture, making it a striking example of how contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork continues to evolve across unconventional platforms. Dob, often interpreted as Murakami’s mascot and alter ego, appears here with swirling eyes, massive teeth, and an explosive palette of electric blues, bubblegum pinks, whites, and reds. The visual design is disorienting and deliberately chaotic, characteristic of Murakami’s embrace of manga, anime, and Japanese commercial iconography. The composite image sprawls across all three decks, turning the set into both an art object and a collector’s item, fully blurring the lines between gallery art and functional street design. The decision to print this work on skate decks expands the accessibility and display potential of Murakami’s work while honoring the rebellious traditions of the surfaces it inhabits. Takashi Murakami and the Language of Commercial Surrealism Takashi Murakami, born in Japan in 1962, has spent decades exploring the visual intersections of fine art, commercial aesthetics, and youth culture. He developed the Superflat movement, which challenges the hierarchy of high versus low art and elevates cartoon, decorative, and commercial imagery into fine art contexts. Flying Dob exemplifies this practice, especially when seen on skate decks—objects traditionally aligned with underground subculture, athleticism, and anti-establishment messaging. Here, the decks function as mobile canvases that carry both the spirit of the street and the curated precision of contemporary design. Murakami’s use of the Dob character is complex. Part mascot, part warning, part self-portrait, Dob morphs across Murakami’s body of work as a representation of power, innocence, and uncontrollable emotion. In this composition, the fractured presentation across three decks intensifies the character’s chaotic energy. The large, angular teeth and swirling eyes become distorted by the deck separation, echoing how identity and perception are often fractured in consumer and digital culture. This psychological tension is core to both Murakami’s art and the visual language of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, which uses distortion, repetition, and vivid color to provoke response and invite inquiry. Street Surfaces and Contemporary Collector Culture Printing fine art on skateboards is not just a stylistic decision but a cultural one. Skate decks have long served as mobile billboards for self-expression, political graphics, and underground illustration. Murakami’s use of this surface format brings his work into dialogue with the visual codes of skater rebellion and DIY print culture. It also echoes the way graffiti and street art elevate everyday materials into lasting visual statements. The decks become a new kind of art print—limited, tactile, and tied to a specific youth-driven history. Flying Dob Skateboard Art Deck Set participates in the cultural practice of displaying what once existed solely in motion. It turns utility into symbol. This transformation reflects how Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork frequently subverts expectations—taking skateboards off the street and into the gallery while maintaining their attitude and visual punch. Murakami’s contribution amplifies this exchange by injecting his polished, commercial aesthetic into a medium traditionally associated with grit and destruction. Murakami’s Position in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Takashi Murakami stands as one of the few living artists whose practice fluidly spans fashion, merchandise, museum exhibition, and street influence without compromising complexity. The Flying Dob Skateboard Art Deck Set is a distilled example of his ability to fuse cultural layers into singular pieces that speak to mass media, personal mythology, and symbolic power. His work does not parody street culture; it contributes to it by redefining how characters, products, and art coexist in shared visual ecosystems. This set, with its razor-sharp execution and chaotic elegance, is both playful and unsettling. It demonstrates how Murakami continues to influence the direction of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork while grounding it in Japanese visual tradition and hypermodern critique. Flying Dob is not simply a design—it is a statement rendered in wood, color, and fragmentation, made to be both ridden and revered.

Pikachu Pokémon Archival Print by Adam Lister Limited Edition on 300gsm Hot Press Matte Fine Art Paper Pop Graffiti Street Artist Modern Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Print Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 8x6 Archival Pigment Fine Art Pikachu Pokémon Dancing Happy in Glitch Style. The Pixelated Charm of Pikachu: Adam Lister's Fusion of Art and Pop Culture Adam Lister's foray into the world of pop culture art is a vibrant intersection where nostalgia meets a modernist aesthetic. His Pikachu Pokémon archival print is a testament to this unique blend, a limited edition piece that marries the playful spirit of Pokémon with the edginess of street pop art and graffiti artwork. This 2023 signed and numbered print is a collector's delight, limited to a mere 50 pieces, each one an embodiment of both rarity and the wide-reaching embrace of street art sensibilities. Lister's work is characterized by its glitch-like, pixelated style, a visual technique that harkens back to the early days of digital graphics. The image of Pikachu, Pokémon's most recognizable figure, is deconstructed into geometric shapes and forms, creating an artwork that is at once familiar and refreshingly novel. The choice of the 300gsm Hot Press Matte Fine Art Paper for the print ensures that each color and shape is rendered with clarity and precision, much like the meticulous detail found in fine graffiti artwork. Pop Graffiti Artistry: Adam Lister's Signature Style In the world of street pop art and graffiti, the approach to subject matter can be as significant as the artwork itself. Adam Lister takes the globally beloved character of Pikachu and reimagines it through a lens that is distinctly reminiscent of 8-bit video game art. The result is a playful yet sophisticated piece that resonates with a wide audience, bridging the gap between the world of street art, typically found on urban landscapes, and the domesticated space of personal art collections. The limited edition nature of Lister's Pikachu print adds an element of exclusivity that is often sought after in the graffiti art community. The print's size, a modest 6x8, speaks to the intimacy of the piece — it is meant to be viewed up close, where the viewer can appreciate the intricacies of Lister's geometric dissections. This careful attention to form and structure is a nod to the precision and skill found in the most revered graffiti artwork, where every line and color is intentional and full of meaning. Adam Lister: A Modern Art Maestro's Dance with Pokémon Adam Lister, hailing from the United States, has positioned himself as a modern maestro of pop graffiti artwork. His archival pigment fine art pieces like the Pikachu Pokémon print are vibrant explorations of pop culture icons through the medium of watercolor-like pixelation. The artwork, described as 'dancing happy in glitch style,' captures the essence of Pikachu's playful nature, while also providing commentary on the digitization of culture and the pixel as a fundamental unit of digital art. Lister's work is a celebration of the digital age, and yet it is deeply rooted in the physicality of street pop art. The archival quality of the print ensures that, unlike street art which may fade or be painted over, this piece will endure as a lasting tribute to both the character of Pikachu and the enduring impact of Pokémon on multiple generations. Adam Lister's Pikachu print is a microcosm of the broader dialogue between popular culture and art. It is a reflection of how street pop art and graffiti can transcend their urban origins and find new expressions and audiences. Lister's unique vision and artistry ensure that this limited edition piece will be treasured not only as a work of art but also as a piece of cultural history, encapsulating the joyous spirit of one of the world's most beloved Pokémon.
