Rime Ocean Slide Archival Print by Rime
Ocean Slide Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Museum Fine Art Paper by Rime Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Ocean Slide is a combination of representative elements that touch on collective lust, moral expectations, and my obsession with graffiti painting. Here, four eyed snakes are two faced persuaders that emotionally camouflage themselves to poke through as many holes as possible. Saying goodbye to summer. This piece was made after returning from a trip to Paris in late October. It is the product of a few all night drawing sessions in my NYC studio. The work aims to orchestrate weight, repetition and color. The elements were improvised and placed atop an abstract starting point. Intersecting strokes and confident squiggles got played with." - Rime
