  • Interpretation HPM Archival Print by Wane One Cod

    Wane One Cod Interpretation HPM Archival Print by Wane One Cod

    Interpretation Limited Edition Hand-Embellished Archival Pigment Prints, Spray Paint on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Wane One Cod Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "This piece was created solely for my 1xRun print release. It is part of an ongoing series called Rasta, (respect all subway transit artists). All of the pieces are painted on NYC subway maps.I painted on a 1972 New York City subway map because this version was the best-designed map in my opinion. Also, graffiti took to the city in the early ’70s and at that time went from the walls to subways. I painted a signature 'Wane' piece as it has a strong letter foundation which is what subway art is based on." - Wane One Cod

Map Graffiti Street Pop Artwork
Maps have long been a popular theme in graffiti art and street art. They offer a visually interesting backdrop for graffiti lettering, as well as a way to explore themes of place and identity. Maps can also serve as a canvas for street artists to showcase their skills and create large-scale murals that engage with the surrounding environment. One of the most common ways maps are incorporated into graffiti art is through the use of map outlines. This involves painting a map of a specific area, such as a city or country, and then filling in the outline with graffiti lettering or other imagery. This technique can be used to highlight a particular location or to make a political statement about a specific area. Maps can also be used as a way to explore themes of place and identity. Street artists may use maps to represent their own personal histories, highlighting the places they have lived or visited. Alternatively, they may use maps to explore the history and culture of a particular location, creating murals that showcase the unique qualities of a place. In addition to using maps as a backdrop or canvas for graffiti art, street artists may also create their own maps as part of their work. These maps may be based on real geographic locations or may be entirely fictional, representing a utopian or dystopian vision of the world. They may include text or other symbols to highlight specific features or to convey a particular message. Maps can also be used to create immersive installations that engage with the surrounding environment. Street artists may create maps on the ground or on walls, using perspective and other techniques to create the illusion of depth and dimensionality. This can be particularly effective in urban environments, where the surrounding architecture can provide a dynamic backdrop for the artwork. Maps are a versatile and popular theme in graffiti art and street art. They offer a way to explore themes of place and identity, as well as a visually interesting backdrop for graffiti lettering and other imagery. Whether used as a canvas, a backdrop, or a way to create immersive installations, maps continue to inspire street artists and graffiti writers around the world.
