    Mear One Freedom For Humanity Chrome Serigraph Print by Mear One

    Freedom For Humanity- Chrome Limited Edition Serigraph Print with Chrome Foil on Hand-Deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper by Mear One Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 20 Artwork Size 20x27 "This piece, 'Freedom For Humanity,' symbolizes the attitude we should be taking regarding our rights as human beings. It's a play on George Orwell's 'Newspeak' from his novel 1984, where he combines and condenses words to create a new language. Language is so important for understanding what it means to be truly free. Yet, it is constantly being eroded, redefined, and replaced to suit the corporations and superficial consumer pop-culture trends for profit. People need translation out of our current language based on greed towards a more meaningful and insightful existence, using language based on our humanity, sharing, and cooperation. I want to inspire critical thought on the implementation of 'Newspeak' in our current Orwellian, media-blitzed reality." - Mear One. Dissecting' Freedom For Humanity' by Mear One Mear One has established himself as a consequential artist in street pop art and graffiti artwork, with "Freedom For Humanity" being one of his most compelling works. This Chrome Limited Edition Serigraph Print is more than a mere aesthetic indulgence; it is a testament to the artist's impassioned plea for linguistic and intellectual freedom. Limited to a series of just twenty signed and numbered pieces, the 2016 artwork, sized 20x27 inches, is printed on hand-deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper. This choice underscores the premium quality and the exclusiveness of the print. The Semantic Revolution Embodied in Art Mear One's creation is an interplay of visual and verbal languages, a critical response to the perversion of words in our contemporary society. This piece reflects not just Orwell's concept of 'Newspeak' but a broader commentary on the state of language and its role in human freedom. The artist's use of chromatic intensity and stark contrasts on the fine art paper is an eye-catching element of modern pop art and serves as a metaphor for the clarity and vibrancy that should accompany human communication. The central figure, a striking representation of defiance, holds a sign that boldly demands "Freedom for Humanity," symbolizing the fight against the manipulation of language by corporate and political forces. Mear One's message is clear: the erosion of language and the commodification of words for profit and power threaten the very fabric of our society. The artist seeks to inspire a reevaluation of how language is wielded and perceived in the modern age. His work implores us to transcend a lexicon rooted in greed and forge one grounded in our collective humanity. The message is a rallying cry for cooperation, sharing, and a reassessment of our values as a civilization. Embracing a New Lexicon for Human Empowerment The artwork bridges street art's raw expressiveness and the sophisticated discourse on human liberties. "Freedom For Humanity" is not merely Mear One's call to action; it is an invitation to introspect on the corporatization of our language and, by extension, our thoughts and freedoms. Through his serigraph, Mear One channels the power of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork to ignite conversation and drive change. The piece doesn't just hang on a wall; it stands on the front lines of cultural discourse, challenging the viewer to break free from the Orwellian shackles of modern-day 'Newspeak.' Ultimately, "Freedom For Humanity" is a symbolic manifesto in art form. It is a reminder of the potency of words and the significance of their liberation. Mear One has contributed a visually stunning piece to the realm of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork and embedded a profound message of liberation and unity within it. His work stands as a beacon for those who seek to understand the true meaning of freedom in a world where language is continually at risk of being co-opted by those in power.

    Saber This Way Up Orange Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber

    This Way Up Orange Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Permanent Marker Art Drawing on Mailing Glosse Arrow Sticker by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 4x6 Marker Tagged on Mail Service Up Arrow Label Sticker. Exact Sticker May Slightly Vary From Image. Signature Styles and Symbolism within the Graffiti Movement Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork have evolved into prominent visual languages of urban culture, often conveying potent messages of social and political dissent. Within this context, the original tag art by the American graffiti artist Saber, precisely his "This Way Up Orange Slap-Up Label Sticker," epitomizes the dynamic intersection between everyday materials and artistic expression. Known for his influential role in the graffiti community, Saber, whose real name is Ryan Weston Shook, has crafted an impactful career that extends beyond the streets and into the gallery spaces. Saber's work on the "This Way Up Orange Slap-Up Label Sticker" is a testament to street art's raw energy and spontaneity. Using a familiar mailing gloss arrow sticker as his canvas, Saber transforms an object of mundane utility into a vibrant piece of art. The choice of material is not incidental; it speaks to the graffiti tradition of appropriating public spaces and objects for personal expression. Typically signifying direction and purpose, the arrow is recontextualized here to direct attention to the overlooked surfaces of urban environments that become the graffiti artist's domain. The bold use of orange and the confident strokes of the marker creates a striking contrast, emphasizing the piece's visual impact. Saber's gestural lines, layered and overlapping, defy the simplicity of the sticker's original purpose. This interplay of color and form is characteristic of Street Pop Art, where the vibrancy of popular culture is distilled into visual snippets that capture the viewer's attention. The year 2020, when this piece was created, saw a resurgence in graffiti art's relevance, mirroring a time of social upheaval and the search for new means of expression. Saber's "This Way Up Orange Slap-Up Label Sticker" aligns with the historical ethos of graffiti as a form of resistance and identity. By signing the artwork, the artist asserts ownership and authenticity, a bold claim in the often anonymous world of street art. Graffiti Artwork, traditionally seen as vandalism, has gained recognition in the art world, blurring the lines between high art and street culture. Saber's work, much like that of his predecessors and contemporaries, challenges preconceived notions of what constitutes art and who is deemed an artist. The permanence of the marker on the gloss arrow sticker symbolizes the lasting impact of graffiti culture, an indelible mark on the face of contemporary art history. The "This Way Up Orange Slap-Up Label Sticker" by Saber is more than a mere piece of original permanent marker art. It reflects the artist's American heritage, a snapshot of the year 2020, and a bold statement within the Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork movement. Saber, who remains a pivotal figure in the graffiti world, continues to inspire and provoke, ensuring that his art remains a part of the urban landscape as the streets themselves.

  • Made in USA Flag Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Gold 1 Made in USA Flag Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Silver 1

    Saber Made in USA Flag Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber

    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 US Flag Made in USA America Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 4x4 Marker Tagged on Sticker. Unfurling the American Narrative Through Graffiti: The Made in USA Flag Sticker Art The potent symbol of the American flag has been a recurring motif in various forms of art, not least within the vibrant world of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork. Within this context, the 'Made in USA' flag slap-up label sticker stands out as a canvas for expression, especially in the hands of graffiti artists. Layered with original tag art, these stickers serve as miniature yet powerful vehicles for cultural and political commentary, recontextualizing a national symbol within the urban landscape. Saber's Interpretation of the American Iconography Renowned graffiti artist Saber Ryan Weston Shook has significantly contributed to this expression. His original permanent marker art drawings on glossy US flag stickers are more than just aesthetic creations; they are a form of modern street artwork that captures the essence of American identity and the spirit of its people. His work, created in 2020 and signed, embodies a raw and compelling narrative, each tag measuring 4x4 inches – a small but striking testament to the artist's skill and vision. Saber's use of the American flag as a backdrop is particularly resonant, given the flag's strong associations with patriotism, freedom, and national identity. By superimposing his tags over this symbol, Saber disrupts the viewer's usual perception, challenging them to reconsider the meaning of 'Made in USA' in the context of street art. His bold and unapologetic strokes introduce a dialogue about ownership, creativity, and the very definition of what it means to be American-made. The Evolution of Tagging and Its Cultural Relevance Tagging has evolved from straightforward signatures to complex works of art that communicate the artist's identity and status within the graffiti community. It is a practice steeped in the history of street art, one that demands attention and commands space. Regarding the 'Made in USA' flag slap-up label stickers by Saber, the tags are not just marks of territory but statements of existence. The choice of gold and silver markers adds a layer of irony, contrasting precious metals' perceived value with graffiti art's often misunderstood value. The cultural relevance of such art is immense. It taps into ongoing conversations about national pride and consumerism, questioning the authenticity of the 'Made in USA' label in an era of globalization. Moreover, it embodies the ethos of Street Pop Art, a genre that borrows from popular culture to create art that is both accessible and deeply meaningful. In Saber's hands, the flag sticker transforms into a manifesto, a declaration that art made on the streets by the hands of the many is as quintessentially American as the flag itself. The 'Made in USA' flag slap-up label stickers adorned with Saber's tags represent a microcosm of the larger narrative that Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork continually narrate. Through such pieces, artists like Saber assert their place within the American saga, crafting a version of the flag that is as diverse, complex, and vibrant as the nation it represents. These stickers are not just tags; they are emblems of a culture that celebrates the freedom of expression and the indelible marks of individuality.

  • Radioactive III Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Silver 1 Radioactive III Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Gold 1

    Saber Radioactive III Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber

Radioactive  Expressions in Street Art In Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, the "Radioactive III Slap-Up Label Sticker" series by Saber, legally known as Ryan Weston Shook, stands out as a profound commentary on the interplay between hazard and creativity. His 2020 series of original permanent marker art drawings on the quintessential yellow and black radioactive warning stickers transform these danger symbols into compelling pieces of modern street artwork. Each 4x4 piece, tagged with Saber's moniker on the Uline S-13849 sticker, carries the weight of its message through the juxtaposition of the universally known hazard symbol with the personal style of the graffiti artist. Confronting Perceptions with Tag Art The choice of the radioactive symbol, a globally recognized sign of lethal materials and the presence of unseen dangers, is intentional and provocative. Saber's tags across these stickers confront our perceptions of risk and the unseen forces that shape our world. By marking these warning labels with his art, Saber injects a human element into the conversation about the hazards surrounding us, both seen and unseen, tangible and intangible. The act of tagging these specific stickers is a bold statement, challenging the viewer to consider the potential for harm that exists not just in the physical realm but in the realm of ideas and expression. Saber's Artistic Legacy An American artist, Saber utilizes his work to provoke and challenge the status quo. His artistry on the "Radioactive III" stickers reflects his capacity to take warning symbols and transform them into symbols of identity and resistance. The series, signed and dated, is a testament to a year marked by global unrest and a reevaluation of what constitutes a threat to our collective well-being. Through his work, Saber raises questions about the role of art in a world that is increasingly aware of and responsive to the dangers it faces, be it environmental, political, or social. In each piece, Saber's signature style — bold, assertive, and unapologetic — captures the essence of street art's capacity to engage with its environment in a dialogue that is both critical and hopeful. The radioactive symbol, once a stark warning, becomes through Saber's intervention a canvas for exploring the boundaries of art and the power of an artist's touch to change how we see the world around us. As an active contributor to the graffiti and street art scene, Saber's work continues to resonate, ensuring that his voice and vision are as enduring as the radioactive elements his chosen canvases warn us about.

    Dangerous When Wet Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Permanent Marker Art Drawing on Glossy Flame Sticker by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 4x4 Marker Tagged on Dangerous When Wet Label Uline S-176 Sticker.  Slap Up In Perfect Condition. Challenging Conventions with Street Pop Art The "Dangerous When Wet Label Uline S-176 Sticker" series, created by the renowned graffiti artist Saber, whose birth name is Ryan Weston Shook, stands as a compelling intersection of street art innovation and cautionary messaging. Saber's 2020 collection of 4x4 marker-tagged artworks embodies the essence of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, repurposing warning labels meant to signify potential danger into canvases that question and provoke thought about the inherent risks in our daily lives and the nature of perceived threats. Fluidity and Permanence in Saber's Art The warning labels Saber selects are traditionally designed to alert individuals of the immediate physical dangers of substances that react with water. However, by incorporating his signature tag into these labels, Saber invites a dialogue on the fluidity of art and its ability to leave a permanent mark on both the physical and cultural landscapes. Through tagging, these stickers, which once served a single helpful purpose, are now transformed into a statement on the juxtaposition of danger and beauty, impermanence and endurance. This speaks to the heart of graffiti's ethos – creating art that can withstand the elements, much like the substances the original labels warn against. Saber and the Assertion of Artistic Presence Each signed original slap-up graffiti art tag is a declaration of presence, asserting the artist's voice in a reserved space for warnings and prohibitions. The choice of the 'Dangerous When Wet' sticker is especially resonant in the year it was created, a year fraught with global challenges where the metaphorical concept of being 'dangerous when wet' could be extended to the idea of ideas, movements, and expressions that gain momentum and power when combined with the elements of social and political change. In exploring this theme, Saber utilizes the language of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork to navigate the complexities of communication in public spaces. His work demands recognition for its aesthetic appeal and its ability to engage with and transform the messages embedded within our environments. As a respected figure in street art, Saber continues to push the boundaries of how art can interact with and alter the fabric of society. Each piece he creates is not just an artwork; it is a challenge, a question, and a statement rolled into one, symbolic of the power and potential of street art to recontextualize and redefine the symbols surrounding us.

Street Art Graffiti Pop Artwork

Origins and Evolution of Street Art

Street art, a vibrant facet of urban culture, has evolved from its origins as illicit graffiti to become a recognized form of public art that influences and is influenced by pop art and graffiti art. The term encompasses a variety of visual art forms created in public locations, typically outside of the traditional venues of art galleries or museums. The genesis of street art can be traced back to the graffiti movement of the 1960s and 1970s in New York City, where artists began using the urban landscape to express themselves outside the constraints of the art establishment. These early graffiti artists laid the foundation for street art by taking their work to the streets and marking buildings, subways, and billboards with their distinctive styles.

Transition from Graffiti to Street Art

As the movement grew, the scope of street art expanded. Artists began experimenting with different materials and techniques, including stencil graffiti, sticker art, wheat pasting, and street installations. The accessibility of street art, visible to all who pass by, challenged the notion that art should be confined to galleries and museums. Instead, it argued that it could be a form of communication and expression integrated into everyday life.

Street Art and Pop Art: A Symbiotic Relationship

The influence of pop art on street art is evident in the shared use of popular cultural imagery and the critique of consumerism. Pop art pioneers like Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein borrowed from commercial art and advertising, much like street artists incorporate logos, branding, and cartoon characters into their work to comment on contemporary society.

Legal and Ethical Considerations

While street art has gained popularity and acceptance, the legality of unsanctioned work remains a contentious issue. Creating art in public spaces without permission is illegal in many jurisdictions, and yet, this transgressive nature gives street art some of its power. The debate over whether street art constitutes vandalism or public service highlights the ongoing tension between the artist's freedom of expression and the rights of property owners.

Street Art in the Digital Age

The rise of social media has played a significant role in the proliferation and democratization of street art. Platforms like Instagram have allowed street artists to share their work with a global audience, transcending the physical limitations of location. Digital photography and the internet have also enabled street art to be documented and preserved, countering its inherently ephemeral nature.

Impact on Culture and Society

Street art can uniquely engage with the community and reflect the social and political climate. Artists like Banksy, Shepard Fairey, and JR use street art to provoke thought and inspire conversation on topics ranging from war and peace to poverty and human rights. This engagement with broader societal issues elevates street art from mere decoration to a form of social commentary.

Commercialization and Mainstream Acceptance

As street art has become more mainstream, it has become more commercialized. This commercialization raises questions about the soul of street art. Can street art maintain its edge and authenticity when sold in galleries or commissioned by brands? This debate continues to shape the trajectory of street art as it becomes an increasingly accepted form of contemporary art. Street art, a dynamic and multifaceted form of creative expression, occupies a unique position at the intersection of visual art, cultural commentary, and public engagement. As it continues to evolve, the influence of street pop art and graffiti artwork on the cultural landscape is undeniable. It remains a powerful tool for artists to connect with the public, challenge societal norms, and push the boundaries of what is possible in art.
