Completed in 2021, this piece is part of a limited series, with only 30 pieces decorated with Peterson's signature and a unique number denoting its place in this exclusive release. With dimensions of 24x30 inches, "The Tempest" commands presence, drawing the eye and the mind into a discourse that is quintessential to the ethos of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Peterson's work is not for the faint of heart. It's a visual punch, unapologetic and blunt in its depiction of the darker facets of humanity. "The Tempest" is a testament to this unabashed bravery, presenting a dichotomy of black and white that goes beyond color, delving into the dualities of power and subjugation, order and chaos.

The absence of color is a strategic silence, allowing the narrative of domination and resistance to resonate louder with its audience. Street Pop Art and Its Dialogues on the Concrete Canvas Street pop art, an umbrella under which "The Tempest" finds a comfortable abode, is not merely an artistic expression but a conversation carved on the concrete canvas of public spaces. Peterson takes this dialogue to the exclusivity of fine art paper, bringing the rawness of the streets into the galleries and collections of art lovers. This transition is not just a physical one; it's a migration of ideas, a movement that brings the unrefined and often uncomfortable truths of graffiti artwork into a space that commands contemplation and discussion. Peterson's "The Tempest" allure is magnified by its rarity. In the art collection world, a piece's value is often tied to its scarcity.

Peterson's commitment to these themes is unwavering, and his ability to convey them through the silkscreen medium is a testament to his artist skill and understanding of his role as a provocateur in the art world. In conclusion, Cleon Peterson's "The Tempest" is a resonant piece that captures the essence of street pop art and graffiti artwork through its thematic boldness and visual impact.

Stabbing & Backstabbing
Graffiti and street art prints have long been a powerful medium for artists to express themselves, convey complex ideas, and tackle controversial subjects. One such theme that has seen its presence in these art forms is the concept of stabbing and backstabbing, both figuratively and literally. Although the topic may be deemed sensitive or provocative, artists worldwide have effectively utilized it to spark conversation and create thought-provoking masterpieces. This exploration of stabbing and backstabbing serves to portray various themes such as trust, betrayal, and societal issues. Within the realm of graffiti and street art prints, stabbing is often represented as a symbol of conflict, aggression, and the violent side of human nature. This portrayal might include depictions of actual knives or sharp objects, the act of stabbing, or simply the incorporation of sharp, jagged lines and shapes that evoke a sense of danger or unease. These representations allow the artists to expose the raw, darker facets of human existence, which are often obscured by the veneer of civilization. In contrast, backstabbing typically represents betrayal and deceit. This theme can be observed in artworks featuring faceless or untrustworthy characters, scenes of double-crossing, or allegorical representations of broken trust. The interpretation of backstabbing in graffiti and street art prints also extends to the broader societal context, exploring themes such as political deception, corporate greed, and personal vendettas. The artists might use elements such as two-faced beings, broken trust symbols, or images of treachery to highlight the prevalence of backstabbing in our daily lives. Artists specializing in graffiti and street art prints often use color and form to enhance the emotional impact of their work on stabbing and backstabbing. The choice of color palette is particularly important, with artists frequently employing darker, more somber hues, such as deep reds, blues, and blacks, to convey a sense of menace or danger. This stark visual representation creates a striking contrast against the backdrop of our otherwise mundane urban environments, which further intensifies the feelings of unrest and disturbance associated with these themes. One of the reasons that artists explore the themes of stabbing and backstabbing in graffiti and street art prints is to initiate dialogue and raise awareness about the darker aspects of society. Through the vivid and often confrontational nature of these art forms, artists aim to provoke thought and challenge prevailing notions of morality, loyalty, and trust. By doing so, they create opportunities for viewers to confront and re-evaluate their beliefs and assumptions about human behavior and relationships. The themes of stabbing and backstabbing in graffiti and street art prints offer a unique opportunity to delve into the darker aspects of human existence. These striking and often disturbing images serve to challenge our perceptions of trust, betrayal, and aggression, while simultaneously opening up important conversations about societal issues. Through the exploration of these themes, artists worldwide have effectively contributed to a larger dialogue surrounding our values and beliefs as a society, while demonstrating the powerful ability of art to transform and provoke.
