This is a large print. -40"x28" in -Serigraph/ mixed media, spray paint, pencil on Coventry Rag archival paper -Each print is unique with spraypaint and pencil -Hand deckled edges "This print was an experiment from start to finish. This is a multi-dimensional mixed media print in the sense the original was created as a conceptual digital-video piece. From this video experiment I was able to capture the final image to be translated into the print format. This was tricky breaking the American Flag that was printed on glass and capturing the right moments as it shattered, but as this process evolved so did the outcome. I really went all out on these with the hand-touching. Within the print layers are raw spray-paint tags buried under multi-colored split fountains. I also penciled and spray-painted on top of the prints weaving these colors and gestures through the image." -Saber

Black Widow Black & Red 21_21a Original Spray Paint Charcoal Painting by Saber One of a Kind Artwork on Fine Art Paper by Street Art Pop Artist. 2022 Signed Spray Paint & Charcoal Pencil Original Painting On Hand Deckled Paper Size 15x17.5. "I love Black Widows ⚫️ ♦️🕷... growing up in Southern California we are surrounded by them. Once you notice thier presents they have a tendency to seep into your subconscious, as they have mine. I spent a little extra time with this series. I added little spider and web details hidden in each piece. Also I'm including some extra gifts created for this series within the packaging. These are not prints but individual paintings. This was created by dipping the edges of the paper in water then quickly scrawling on it with waterbased spraypaint using a fat cap. Then, quickly blast it with a hose while it is still wet to reveal the spraypaints ghost like textures and whips. These ghost shapes become the pathways to then detail out with black charcoal pencil. Because of the fast chaotic nature of the first stage of this process using the spraypaint each piece becomes unique yet simular. The detailing process of the second stage using the black charcoal pencil is slower paced and requires more attention. This drawing process becomes cathartic and meditative as each little puzzle is completed. -Also, as I was working on this series, my son was inspired to draw this baby blackwidow drawing. He insisted I hide this as a gift in one of the packages as a thank you.." -Saber

White Washed Purple Tag HPM Mixed Media Unique by Saber The piece titled "White Washed Purple Tag HPM Mixed Media Unique" by the artist Saber is a quintessential example of this art form. Saber, a renowned American graffiti artist, Ryan Weston Shook, has played a pivotal role in bringing graffiti and street art into the gallery space. Born in 1976, Saber remains an influential figure in the street art community, known for his distinctive style that often features a dynamic use of color, bold tags, and an edgy aesthetic that resonates with the ethos of street culture. The artwork itself is a hand-painted marker on fine art paper that exudes street art's raw energy and spontaneity.

Saber's use of spray paint, acrylic paint, markers, and permanent markers culminates in an artwork that is visually striking and tactile in its layered application of materials. The piece's dimensions, a modest 6x8, may seem small, but the impact of the artwork is substantial. The compact size encapsulates the immediacy of graffiti art, where space is often at a premium, and artists must convey their message concisely and powerfully.

The mixed media aspect of the piece showcases the versatility and innovativeness of street artists, who often have to adapt to various environments and use available materials. The technique of whitewashing, often used by city authorities to cover up graffiti, is reappropriated in this piece to serve as a canvas, creating a stark contrast with the vibrant purple tag. This reclamation symbolizes street artists' struggle in their quest for recognition and the right to public space. The purple tag, a signature of Saber's work, is not merely a name but a statement of identity, a bold declaration of existence in a constantly changing and evolving world.

Limited Quantities Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Spray Paint Art Drawing on Glossy US Flag Sticker by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed by Tag Original Slap Up Graffiti Art 10x7 Neon Orange Spray Paint & Acrylic Paint Tagged on Limited Quantities Sticker. Saber's Signature Style and Medium The notion of exclusivity and scarcity often heightens the allure of an artwork, a concept that street pop art and graffiti artwork embody with particular zeal. In the realm of this artistic expression, the 'Limited Quantities' slap-up label sticker original tag art by Saber is a vivid exemplar of such rarity and desirability. This piece is a testament to the graffiti artist's signature style, where the urban landscape becomes a canvas for bold statements and visual disruptions. The artist, Saber, whose real name is respected in the street art community, chooses an everyday object—a glossy US flag sticker—and transforms it into a conduit for artistic expression. Measuring 10x7 inches, the work features neon orange spray paint and acrylic, a combination that Saber employs to create an arresting visual impact. The piece is a 2020 original, signed by the artist's tag, a mark of authenticity in the graffiti world. Saber's work is a dialogue between the artwork and its viewers. It is a conversation sparked by the vibrant hues and the vigorous, almost aggressive application of the tag that slices through the text 'Limited Quantities.' Using a slap-up sticker underscores the guerrilla nature of street art—fast, unexpected, and often fleeting. This mode of art-making aligns with the concept of limited editions; just as the sticker is quickly placed, it can be just as rapidly removed or covered, its existence as fleeting as the quantity it denotes. The Cultural Resonance of Limited Quantities in Modern Street Art In the culture of street pop art and graffiti artwork, the phrase 'Limited Quantities' speaks volumes. It is not just a literal indication of availability but also a symbolic nod to the transient nature of the genre. Street art is often at the mercy of environmental elements, city clean-up crews, or even other artists who may paint over a piece in the ever-evolving urban gallery. Thus, each work's existence is inherently limited, a transient moment of expression captured before it is altered or erased. Saber's piece serves as a literal and figurative marker of the times. In an age where consumerism often leads to mass production and replication, there is a growing appreciation for what is rare and unique. With its exclusive tag and vibrant spray paint on a glossy sticker, this artwork becomes a collectible item, a treasure hunt find for street art lovers and casual observers alike. The neon orange color, often associated with caution and high visibility, plays a dual role in this artwork. It demands attention, ensuring the message and the art cannot be ignored. Simultaneously, it satirizes the concept of caution by implying that the content, the 'Limited Quantities' of authentic street art, should be approached with reverence and awareness. Saber, an American artist, has contributed to the urban art scene and shaped the conversation around the value and significance of street pop art. Much like the 'Limited Quantities' slap-up sticker, his works reflect a societal commentary on the state of art, consumerism, and the politics of space and visibility. They are symbols of resistance, creativity, and the indomitable spirit of the street art movement. Saber's 'Limited Quantities' sticker is more than just a piece of graffiti artwork; it is a statement on street pop art's transient yet impactful nature. It is an emblem of the scarcity that often accompanies true creativity and originality in the bustling marketplace of ideas that is the modern cityscape. With each piece, Saber not only leaves his mark on the physical world but also imprints on the collective consciousness of a culture that continues to seek out the rare, the unique, and the authentic expressions of human experience.

Coronavirus Quarantine Multi Tagged Original Slap-Up Label Marker Painting/Drawing Art on Warning Label by Tru Graffiti Legend Saber Urban Street Artist. 2020 Signed Marker Original Coronavirus Quarantine Yellow Biohazard Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 7x5 Multi Tagged on High Visibility Virus Covid-19 Warning Label Red, Purple & Silver Marker. Confronting a Global Crisis through Street Pop Art The 'Coronavirus Quarantine' multi-tagged original slap-up label marker painting/drawing by the urban street artist Saber captures the zeitgeist of an era dominated by the pandemic. This 2020 signed marker original is more than a piece of graffiti artwork; it is a historical document that encapsulates a moment when the world grappled with the unprecedented challenge of COVID-19. Saber, known for his influential role in the graffiti art scene, takes a high-visibility yellow biohazard slap-up label, a symbol now ubiquitously associated with the virus, and transforms it into a canvas. The dimensions of the work, 7x5 inches, might seem modest, but the impact of the art could be better. Through his use of vibrant and chaotic tags that overlay the stark warning of 'Coronavirus Quarantine,' Saber disrupts the alarming message of the label, inviting contemplation on the nature of the pandemic that extends beyond fear and caution. The piece is a profound commentary on global affairs during the COVID-19 crisis. The graffiti artist's tags subverted the choice to use a warning label, a helpful object designed to communicate danger and command obedience. The tags, often considered an act of defiance in public spaces, here challenge the narrative of the pandemic by bringing an individualistic and human touch to the impersonal and clinical warning label. Impact of Saber's Art in the Context of Street Pop Art In the context of street pop art, Saber's 'Coronavirus Quarantine' piece stands out as a poignant reflection of the times. Street art has always had the unique ability to engage with its audience directly and urgently. In this instance, the art serves as a visual expression of the collective angst, confusion, and resilience experienced during the quarantine periods. Saber's artwork, juxtaposing the form of formal, almost anarchic graffiti tags, speaks to the unchecked nature of the public's response to the pandemic—order and disorder, compliance and rebellion. 2020 will be remembered for its seismic shifts in global health, economies, and societies. In this climate, street pop art and graffiti artwork like Saber's serve as markers of resistance and reminders of human endurance. The biohazard slap-up label, once a mere functional sign, is recontextualized as a piece of art that provokes, questions, and endures, much like the human spirit during the trials of the pandemic. Saber, the American artist behind this impactful work, has once again demonstrated why he is regarded as a legend in the graffiti world. His ability to take the pulse of society and translate it into art that is both provocative and reflective ensures that his work remains relevant and resonant, not just within the street art community but also among those who encounter his art in the very public spaces that the coronavirus pandemic has so markedly changed.

Triple Made in USA Flag Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Permanent Marker Art Drawing on Glossy US Flag Sticker by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed 3x Uncut US Flag Made in USA America Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 12x4 Marker Tagged on Sticker. The Fusion of Patriotism and Rebellion: Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork The artwork under scrutiny exemplifies a vibrant confluence of street art ethos and patriotic expression. At first glance, the piece presents itself as a defiant act of embellishment on a symbol of national pride, the American flag, with a repetitive assertion of domestic production - "Made in the USA." Yet, upon closer inspection, it reveals a layered dialogue between the artist's intent and the viewer's interpretation, characteristic of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Saber, the artist behind this creation, is a recognized figure within the street art community. His contributions have been instrumental in elevating graffiti as a legitimate form of contemporary art. Born in the United States, Saber's works often imbue a sense of national identity while simultaneously challenging the status quo. Through his art, he manifests a unique blend of patriotism and critique, a duality especially palpable in this piece. Symbolism and Significance in Saber's Artwork The triptych form of the uncut sticker sheet intensifies the impact of the message "Made in USA," iterated thrice for emphasis. Each flag is a canvas for Saber's signature tagged style, where the fluidity and boldness of his lines are pronounced against the structured backdrop of the stars and stripes. The choice of a glossy US flag sticker as a medium is deliberate, enhancing the interplay of textures and finishes, a hallmark of street pop art. Saber's use of permanent markers to draw over the stickers indicates the permanence of the sentiments expressed through the artwork. The stark black scribbles, chaotic and vigorous, convey a sense of urgency and raw emotion that often accompanies national identity and production discussions. The act of tagging over a national symbol can be seen as a form of social and political commentary, a conversation starter on topics ranging from patriotism to consumerism in American society. Contextualizing Saber's Work in Modern Street Art In the landscape of modern street art, Saber's work stands out for its fearless confrontation with political themes and its nuanced examination of American identity. His 2020 series of tagged US flag stickers holds a mirror to the complexities of the "American Dream" and the realities of the country's manufacturing ethos. By overlaying graffiti art onto an emblem of national pride, Saber challenges viewers to reconsider their perceptions of the flag and graffiti as an art form. The graffiti artist's employment of slap-up labels, a street art staple, underscores the transient nature of the medium. Traditionally, slap-ups are quickly affixed to surfaces in public spaces, intended for mass consumption, and often subject to removal or decay. In contrast, Saber's work immortalizes this ephemeral technique, transforming the slap-up into a lasting artifact of cultural expression. The fusion of graffiti with the iconic flag imagery in this artwork invites discourse on the dichotomy between established norms and subversive acts. It is a testament to the evolving narrative of street pop art, where the boundaries between the sanctioned and the insurgent are blurred. Saber's art does not just occupy physical space; it occupies the mental space of contemplation, urging an engagement with its underlying messages. Saber's triple "Made in USA" flag stickers stand as a poignant example of how street pop art and graffiti can encapsulate complex socio-political themes within a singular visual experience. It is a striking reminder of the power inherent in street art to communicate, challenge, and engage on levels that transcend the visual, firmly establishing Saber's position within the pantheon of contemporary street artists.

This Biohazard Neon Orange Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Acrylic Paint Art Drawing on Biohazard Label Sticker by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 6x6 Acrylic Paint Tagged on Medical Biohazard Label Sticker. Neon High Visibility Orange Biohazard Symbol Uline label #S-20794. Exploring the Fusion of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork In the dynamic sphere of contemporary visual culture, street pop art and graffiti artwork stand out as potent forms of expression that encapsulate urban life's rhythm and raw sentiments. Among the luminaries of this genre is the renowned graffiti artist Saber, known for his striking contributions to the street art panorama. The piece under scrutiny is a vibrant example of his ingenuity—a 6x6 acrylic or marker piece tagged on a medical biohazard label sticker featuring a neon high visibility orange biohazard symbol from Uline label #S-20794. Distinctive Aesthetic of Saber's Tag Art Saber's original permanent marker art drawing on a mailing glossy arrow sticker presents a striking visual paradox. The neon orange of the biohazard symbol evokes a sense of caution, typically used to warn of dangerous substances. Contrasted with the blue drips of paint that appear haphazardly splashed across the surface, there is intentional defiance and palpable tension between structure and chaos. This work is a signed 2020 original slap-up graffiti art tag that showcases not just the artist's signature style but also his ability to transform ordinary objects into powerful statements. The choice of a biohazard label as a canvas is a commentary on the infectious nature of art and ideas. Saber effectively takes a symbol that denotes hazard and contamination and recontextualizes it within the aesthetic of street pop art. By doing so, he challenges the viewer to reconsider the connotations of biohazards, not just in the physical sense but in the metaphorical contagion of art in public spaces. Impact and Significance in Modern Street Art Saber is an American artist whose real name has been as influential in the graffiti community as the images he creates on walls and in galleries. His use of a mailing label as a medium is a nod to the guerrilla tactics of early street art culture, where quick, impactful statements were essential, and materials were often repurposed or found objects. This sticker art, often called a 'slap-up,' is a form of street art that is quickly applied, or 'slapped up,' onto a surface in a public space. It allows for transient yet assertive communication, echoing urban life's fast-paced and often impermanent nature. The neon orange and blue artwork transcends its simple components, becoming a canvas for a larger discourse on visibility, legality, and the permanence of art. As a form of street pop art, it retains the accessibility and mass appeal of pop culture while embedding itself in the more subversive and counter-cultural roots of graffiti. This duality is where its power lies; it is both a bold declaration and a subliminal whisper, a fixture on the streets that can be as quickly removed as it is noticed. In the context of graffiti artwork, Saber's biohazard label sticker becomes an artifact of the streets, a testament to the artist's ability to command attention and communicate through symbols and color. With its saturated hues and deliberate drips, the piece resonates with the energy of the streets and the people's voices. It is a piece that marks a physical space and stamps a moment in time, encapsulating the essence of street pop art in its ability to capture the pulse of contemporary urban life. The interplay of color, symbol, and medium in this piece illustrates the innovative potential of street pop art. Saber's work disrupts the monotony of urban environments, offering passersby a moment of aesthetic arrest amidst the concrete canvas of the city. In modern street artwork, such interventions are not just decorative but are vital narratives that articulate the identity and the undercurrents of a city's cultural dialogue. Through works like this, Saber and his contemporaries continue to influence the trajectory of street pop art, ensuring its evolution and relevance. They remind us that the streets remain a powerful platform for artistic expression, where the voices of the marginalized and the spirit of rebellion can find their visual lexicon. Saber's neon orange slap-up label sticker is not just a mark made with acrylic or marker; it is a statement, a challenge, and a vibrant echo of the energy that drives the city's heart.

Deconstructing Symbols in Street Pop Art The 'American Flag Black HPM Watercolor Unique Stencil' by Saber is an evocative piece of modern pop art, reflecting the artist's nuanced approach to symbol deconstruction and cultural commentary. In this signed and numbered unique edition of 40 HPM (Hand-Painted Multiple) watercolor stencil artworks, the conventional image of the US American Flag is reimagined. Measuring 5x5 inches, the original painting presents the flag's iconic stripes in black, a bold departure from their traditional red and white. Saber's Technique and Style Saber's work is characterized by its layered complexity, both in the physical layers of paint and the conceptual layers of meaning. This piece, created on watercolor fine art paper, employs a stencil technique often used in street art to produce sharp, clean images that can be replicated multiple times. However, each piece in the series remains unique, a testament to the artist's hand that guides the process. The choice of watercolor as a medium adds a fluidity and softness to the otherwise stark imagery of the flag, suggesting a sense of ephemerality and change. The black stripes dominate the visual field, standing out against the subtle hues of the watercolor background. This alteration of the flag's color scheme may speak to many social and political interpretations, from mourning and protest to strength and unity. The work becomes a canvas for dialogue, inviting viewers to project their thoughts and emotions onto the flag's transformed image. Reflections on National Identity and Patriotism In street pop art, the flag is a powerful symbol that is loaded with meaning and often employed to express pride, dissent, or a complex combination of both. Saber's rendition of the American flag calls into question national identity and patriotism notions. By altering the flag's traditional colors, the artist prompts a reevaluation of what these symbols represent and how they resonate within the current socio-political climate. The graffiti street artist's decision to work with an emblem as potent as the American flag indicates a willingness to engage with themes that are at once universal and deeply personal. The flag, an icon meant to unite, becomes a site of divergence in Saber's hands, a space where the tensions and contradictions of American life are laid bare. Like much of street pop art, this artwork is not confined to the public walls and alleyways where graffiti is commonly found. It enters the more intimate spaces of galleries and private collections, yet it retains the raw, provocative energy that is the hallmark of street art. Saber, an American artist, navigates this transition with ease, bringing the spirit of the streets into the fine art arena without losing the potency of his message. In this unique series, Saber continues challenging the boundaries of street pop art and graffiti artwork, reaffirming his position as a leading figure. The 'American Flag Black HPM Watercolor Unique Stencil' is a testament to the enduring power of street art to provoke thought and inspire conversation. It is a bold statement in the ongoing discourse about identity, belonging, and the symbols we hold dear.

Neon Pink Black Widow Spider HPM Mixed Media Unique by Saber Hand-Painted Ink, Colored Pencils, Marker, Highlighter on Fine Art Paper Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art.  2023 Signed & Numbered Mixed Unique Edition Original Series Edition of 25 HPM Hand-Drawn Pen Ink, Highlighter Marker, Marker, and Colored Pencils Artwork Size 3.5x3 Mini Drawing of the Pink Spiders & Black Widow Spider. Includes Hand Painted & Tagged Cardboard.

This 2023 collection, a numbered series of 25 unique hand-painted multiples (HPM), features miniature 3.5x3 inch drawings of black widow spiders rendered in a striking neon pink. These pieces are accompanied by hand-painted and tagged cardboard, combining natural motifs and urban art sensibilities. Saber's Mixed Media Mastery Saber, an artist whose works are embedded in the DNA of modern street art, utilizes a diverse range of materials such as pen ink, highlighter, marker, and colored pencils to bring these arachnids to life. The neon pink is arresting and symbolic, challenging the viewer's perceptions of danger and attraction. In the natural world, bright colors often serve as a warning, and in the urban landscape, they demand attention – a parallel that Saber skillfully draws upon in his artwork. The inclusion of hand-painted cardboard adds an element of raw authenticity to the series. Cardboard, a ubiquitous and often discarded material, is transformed into a valuable part of the art, questioning the hierarchy of materials and the value assigned to different mediums. This approach is emblematic of street pop art's capacity to elevate the mundane and to find beauty in the overlooked. Themes of Survival and Beauty Black widow spiders are creatures that evoke a mixture of fear and fascination. Saber taps into this duality, using the spiders as a metaphor for resilience and the delicate balance between beauty and danger. This narrative is particularly resonant within the context of street pop art and graffiti artwork, where the act of creation itself is often a form of survival and defiance. The spiders, set against Saber's signature tags backdrop, embody the tension inherent in street art – the push and pull between legality and expression, between the individual artist and the broader community. Through his neon pink black widows, Saber invites a dialogue about the interplay between instincts and urban environments and the instinctual drive to leave a mark through silk webs or spray paint.

Priority Mail 228-2013 Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Permanent Drawing Art on USPS Mailing Label by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed by Tag Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 4.5x3.5 Color Marker on the USPS United States Postal Service Priority Mail Label 228-2013.  Street Art's Intersection with Everyday Objects The 'Priority Mail 228-2013' slap-up label sticker featuring original tag art by Saber is a remarkable embodiment of how modern street artwork intersects with everyday objects. Saber, a recognized name in graffiti, transforms a mundane USPS mailing label into a canvas for his artistic expression. This piece, a 4.5x3.5 color marker on the USPS United States Postal Service Priority Mail Label 228-2013, is 2020 original, showcasing the artist's unique ability to repurpose everyday items into art. Saber's Artistic Commentary on Communication This work is more than an act of creative repurposing; it serves as a commentary on communication and how messages are transmitted in the modern world. By choosing a Priority Mail label, Saber taps into the theme of urgency and the importance of messages that such labels signify. His artwork disrupts this narrative of swift communication with a personal and cryptic tag, suggesting that amidst the rapid exchange of information, there are layers of meaning waiting to be uncovered. The tag, applied with a color marker, flows across the label in a style reminiscent of Saber's street art murals. The vibrant green strokes against the white and red of the Priority Mail label create a stark contrast, symbolizing perhaps the clash between the institutional and the individual, the standardized and the personalized. The use of a USPS label also points to the public domain as a space ripe for artistic intervention, where the artist can leave a mark that is both provocative and publicly accessible. Modern Street Art and the Culture of Slap-Up Tags Saber's choice of a slap-up label adheres to the culture of street pop art, where quick, spontaneous creations are integral to the art form. Slap-up tags are known for their immediacy and are often used by artists to leave a quick signature in public spaces. This piece emulates that culture, with Saber's tag being a literal and figurative mark of the artist's presence. In the context of street pop art and graffiti artwork, Saber's 'Priority Mail 228-2013' label is a testament to the genre's evolving canvas. It moves beyond walls and subway cars to find a place on portable, everyday items, thus expanding the reach of street art. Saber, an American artist, is known for such innovations, constantly challenging the boundaries of where and what street art can be. In sum, the artwork on the Priority Mail label is a statement on the power of street art to transform the mundane into the extraordinary. It captures the essence of street pop art's spontaneity and Saber's role as a pioneer in the movement. The tag, a signature of the artist's identity, reminds of the personal touch in an increasingly impersonal world dominated by digital communication and standardized services.
