Skeletons & Skulls

Freedom/Prosperity At Any Price- Red Limited Edition Hand Pulled 2-Color Screenprint Print on 290gsm Arches Rag Paper with Deckled Edges by Cleon Peterson Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. Hand-pulled 18 x 24" screenprint. Printed on 290gsm Arches Rag paper with deckled edges. Each print is signed and numbered. Limited edition of 125. The visuality of Cleon Peterson's work is based on a variety of influences, from ancient Greek pottery to comics, resulting in monochromacy and strong color symbolism. In more detail, the figures exist on multiple straight lines, something that, subsequently, creates the illusion that the artwork is divided in levels. The perspective and the impression of depth do moderately exist in the art of Peterson and, just like in Greek vases, the background space is usually left empty or slightly embellished.

Invader Silkscreen Print by Mike Giant Hand-Pulled 3-Color on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Tattoo Examples & Iconography Like Skull Skeleton Egyptian Brain Woman Sports Car. Decoding the 'Invader Green Blue Silkscreen Print' by Mike Giant The 'Invader Green Blue Silkscreen Print' by Mike Giant is a bold statement in pop art, street art, and graffiti artwork. This hand-pulled 3-color silkscreen print on fine art paper is part of a limited edition series, with only 100 pieces in existence, each one signed and numbered by the artist himself. Created in 2023, the 18x24 artwork encapsulates myriad iconographic elements that Mike Giant is renowned for: tattoo examples, an Egyptian figure, a human brain, a female portrait, and a sports car, all executed with a striking green and blue color palette. Mike Giant's Artistic Lexicon in 'Invader' Mike Giant's artistic lexicon is a confluence of various influences, from tattoo art's graphic sharpness to Egyptian iconography's symbolic depth. The 'Invader' print serves as a canvas for these diverse elements to form a cohesive narrative. The juxtaposition of a modern sports car with the ancient Egyptian figure speaks to the timelessness of human fascination with progress and power. Meanwhile, including a detailed human brain and the haunting image of a skull evoke a contemplation of human consciousness and mortality. The female portrait, rendered in a classic pop art style, along with the stylized text and motifs, is reminiscent of vintage advertisements and propaganda art. These elements collectively critique consumerism, fame, and the commodification of human values and identity. It reflects street pop art's potential to communicate complex messages within visually arresting imagery. Craftsmanship in Silkscreen Printing The 'Invader Green Blue Silkscreen Print' craftsmanship reflects Mike Giant's dedication to traditional art-making techniques. Silkscreen printing, a method with roots in early 20th-century industrial and graphic arts, has been embraced by artists within pop art and street art for its ability to produce vibrant, crisp images that capture the dynamism of urban life. In this print, the hand-pulled technique ensures that each piece is unique, imbued with the artist's touch and the subtle variations from manual printing. Symbolism and Narrative in Modern Street Art Symbolism plays a crucial role in the narrative power of the 'Invader' print. Each iconographic element is carefully chosen to represent facets of modern society and the human experience. The skull and skeleton, often associated with danger or mortality, are juxtaposed with symbols of wealth and the pursuit of pleasure, such as money and fast cars. This interplay of symbols provokes a dialogue about the dichotomies present in contemporary life—between life and death, spirituality and materialism, history and progress. The 'Invader Green Blue Silkscreen Print' by Mike Giant, as a piece of street pop art and graffiti artwork, is a testament to the enduring influence of these art forms in contemporary culture. It encapsulates the essence of street art's ability to infiltrate public consciousness with universal and deeply personal messages. For collectors and admirers, the 'Invader' print is not just a visual spectacle; it is an emblem of the power of art to reflect and critique the world we navigate daily.

Yerena Montejano's choice of symbols, juxtaposing a pirate ship bearing both the emblems of hazardous material and the iconic skull and crossbones, underscores the danger and death associated with colonial conquests. The backdrop, an unyielding red circle, could be interpreted as a reference to the rising sun, symbolizing a new dawn of awareness and opposition to colonialism. The inclusion of the raised fist, a universal sign of solidarity and resistance, further amplifies the print’s message, urging onlookers to acknowledge past transgressions and take a stand against the lingering effects of colonialism. This piece of art resonates within the pop art, street art, and graffiti art movements due to its accessible yet poignant visual language.

Cosmic Eyes Silkscreen Print by Jason Abraham Smith Hand-Pulled on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Screenprint Artwork. 2013 Signed & Numbered on Back Limited Edition of 40 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Cosmic Eyes Silkscreen Print by Jason Abraham Smith Cosmic Eyes is a limited edition silkscreen print created by Jason Abraham Smith in 2013. This highly detailed hand-pulled artwork, measuring 18x24 inches, is signed and numbered on the back, with only 40 prints produced. The piece exemplifies the artist’s signature style, merging elements of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork with intricate linework, surrealist horror, and an otherworldly aesthetic. The organic yet mechanical forms within the composition evoke a dreamlike fusion of science fiction, mythology, and street-inspired chaos, making it a standout example of print-based contemporary art. Visual Complexity and Symbolism The composition of Cosmic Eyes is dense and highly structured, featuring a hybrid of monstrous organic forms and intricate mechanical details. The dominant imagery presents an almost deity-like cosmic entity with piercing eyes, radiating energy in all directions. Tentacle-like appendages twist and weave throughout the scene, intertwined with technological elements, skeletal figures, and surreal textures. The symmetry of the artwork creates a hypnotic effect, drawing the viewer into a seemingly infinite pattern of repeating motifs. The use of detailed stippling and fine cross-hatching adds depth and texture, reminiscent of both traditional etching techniques and the raw aesthetics of graffiti-style illustration. The color palette, dominated by muted greens, browns, and bone-like whites, enhances the eerie and otherworldly atmosphere, reinforcing the theme of cosmic horror and transcendental vision. Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Influence Jason Abraham Smith’s work is deeply connected to the visual language of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. His bold, intricate linework reflects the precision of mural-based street art, while his surreal themes and chaotic compositions are reminiscent of underground comic book aesthetics and lowbrow art movements. The layered complexity of Cosmic Eyes echoes the detailed layering techniques found in wheatpaste posters and large-scale graffiti murals. His fusion of psychedelic horror and mechanical precision captures the raw, energetic feel of urban art, making this print a piece that could just as easily exist on a city wall as in a fine art print collection. The aggressive textures and fluid movement within the piece give it an almost animated quality, reinforcing its place within contemporary print-based street art. Collectibility and Cultural Impact As a signed and numbered edition of only 40, Cosmic Eyes is a highly sought-after print among collectors of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The meticulous craftsmanship behind the hand-pulled silkscreen process ensures that each print carries subtle variations, making every copy unique. The connection to horror, mythology, and futuristic themes expands its appeal beyond traditional street art enthusiasts, attracting fans of surrealist and fantasy-driven visual art. Jason Abraham Smith’s ability to merge printmaking traditions with the raw energy of urban-inspired artwork makes this piece a defining example of contemporary silkscreen-based Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The scarcity of the edition, combined with the immersive nature of the composition, ensures that Cosmic Eyes remains a valued and influential piece within the growing world of independent screenprint artwork.

Metallica Helping Hands Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2024 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Featuring a Skull Flower For the Mega Rock bands Metallica, Sammy Hagar & Sistastrings "Metallica recently asked me to create the poster for their Helping Hands concert. Of course, I said yes because Metallica is one of my favorite bands and the tightest live band I have ever seen! Plus, the concert benefits some great causes. This print celebrates triumph over adversity while acknowledging that life is fragile and it’s in our hands to build the world we want for ourselves and our brothers and sisters." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Metallica Helping Hands Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey - OBEY Shepard Fairey’s Metallica Helping Hands silkscreen print fuses raw rock iconography with the sharply tuned visual philosophy of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Created for Metallica’s December 13th, 2024 concert at the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles, the artwork stands as both a promotional and cultural artifact—one that reinforces Fairey’s unique position at the nexus of music, politics, and visual rebellion. This limited edition, hand-pulled silkscreen print on 18x24 inch cream Speckletone paper is not only signed and numbered by Fairey himself, but also issued in a strict run of 500 copies, elevating its stature as both a collectible and a testament to contemporary poster art. Design Symbolism and Visual Impact The composition centers around a stark white hand clutching a stylized flower whose petals subtly morph into a skull motif, with the flower’s stem winding in a way that evokes both delicacy and defiance. This emblem, rendered in bold reds, blacks, and whites, signals duality—life and death, fragility and force, compassion and rebellion. The deliberate contrast between the flower’s soft curves and the jagged lines of the skull mirrors the complex ethos of Metallica’s music, where heavy riffs often meet introspective lyrics. Fairey’s hallmark typography and symmetrical layout deliver the immediacy and intensity familiar in his most iconic works, extending the print’s resonance far beyond mere merchandise. Metallica and the Culture of Amplified Resistance Metallica’s presence in pop culture transcends heavy metal. Their brand of amplified resistance, sharpened through decades of visual, sonic, and lyrical output, fits naturally into the framework of Street Pop Art. Fairey’s poster positions the band not just as musicians, but as cultural avatars whose artistic collaborations hold weight in the visual conversation around social change. By visually contextualizing the concert’s philanthropic mission—benefiting Metallica’s All Within My Hands Foundation—Fairey presents rock music not just as expression but as action, and art as an extension of that impact. Shepard Fairey’s Role in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Fairey’s artistic lineage is defined by disruption, clarity of message, and the subversive use of commercial aesthetics to question power structures. In this print, he leverages those core traits while paying homage to a band whose legacy aligns with his own. The print maintains the stylistic elements synonymous with Fairey’s OBEY imprint—sharp silhouettes, geometric precision, and symbolic weight—while also introducing a warmth and sentimentality not always seen in his politically charged works. The image of the skull flower, set against the backdrop of a performance by Metallica, Sammy Hagar, and Sistastrings, becomes a modern-day reliquary—a symbol of unity through sound, protest, and design. This piece not only enshrines a single event but expands its reach into the broader discourse of art activism, making it a defining example of what happens when two cultural juggernauts—Shepard Fairey and Metallica—merge on canvas within the framework of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.
