Life After Death Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Fine Art Paper by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Ken Flewellyn. 20x16 inches / 51x41 cm Edition of 40 Fine art print on 290gsm paper Hand-signed and numbered by the artist Ken Flewellyn’s Life After Death: Baroque Symbolism in Street Pop Art Form Ken Flewellyn’s Life After Death presents a meticulously rendered still life that fuses classical painting traditions with the language of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Released as a 20 x 16 inch giclée print on 290gsm fine art paper in a signed and numbered edition of 40, the piece takes aesthetic cues from 17th-century vanitas while layering in modern hip-hop and pop culture references. With photographic precision, Flewellyn constructs a visual narrative about legacy, excess, identity, and mortality—turning familiar symbols into philosophical statements. A gold-plated skull wearing a crown rests atop a stack of magazines, evoking both royalty and finality. The juxtaposition of this memento mori with luxury objects—a Versace-styled boombox, thick gold rope chain, designer sunglasses, a spilled wine glass—highlights the tension between materialism and impermanence. The broken cigar, empty jewelry case, and antique pocket watch on a satin ribbon extend this commentary, nodding to the fragility of status and time. Like Dutch vanitas painters who used decaying fruit and extinguished candles to hint at life’s brevity, Flewellyn replaces those metaphors with consumer goods, packaging the same message for a contemporary audience. Hyperrealism as a Tool of Cultural Synthesis The precision of Flewellyn’s painting style is not just a technical flex—it’s a deliberate choice that elevates the visual weight of every object on the table. Each item is treated with reverence and clarity, forcing the viewer to examine them individually and collectively. Hyperrealism in this context becomes a method of preservation, much like how historical paintings immortalized wealth, nobility, or religious conviction. Here, the objects preserved are relics of urban culture, hip-hop mythology, and fashion-driven self-construction. This synthetic approach to visual storytelling is one of Flewellyn’s strengths. Rather than lean into abstraction or expressive distortion, he paints with clinical sharpness. The boombox, decorated with intricate Medusa heads and gold patterning, becomes a sacred totem. The magazines, showing muscle-bound figures and flashy headlines, serve both as cultural archive and pop commentary. The reflection in the polished orb at left even contains the outline of the artist’s studio space, collapsing the illusion of classical detachment and re-inserting the viewer into the act of creation. Rewriting the Still Life Through Street Pop Language Ken Flewellyn’s background in pop culture study and urban visual language allows Life After Death to operate as a cross-genre artwork. Though not made with aerosol or on public walls, its structure and symbols place it firmly in the lineage of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The work reframes the aesthetics of graffiti—where hierarchy, identity, and legacy are constantly negotiated—through the composition and technique of high art traditions. It does not imitate graffiti stylistically; instead, it honors its values through symbolism and narrative. By reconstructing a still life with hip-hop’s material vocabulary, Flewellyn bridges historical and contemporary methods of cultural storytelling. The table becomes a battlefield of symbols—power, time, excess, fame—and the viewer is invited to read the relics for what they reveal about the pursuit of permanence in a transient world. The crown, worn by a skull, reminds us that all power is borrowed. The spilled drink, the tangled chain, the tooth—each item carries encoded meaning, transformed by the hand of the artist into a modern-day parable. Ken Flewellyn’s Life After Death captures the essence of contemporary Street Pop Art by combining the rigor of fine art painting with the immediacy of cultural critique. Through composition, symbolism, and visual clarity, it serves as a statement on mortality, self-image, and what survives after the noise fades.

Decycled Versace Limited Edition Hand-Embellished HPM Archival Pigment Prints with Collage, Aerosol, Pencil, and Varnish Embellishments on Fine Art Paper by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2021 Signed Limited Edition Numbered & Custom Framed Archival Pigment Print with Collage, Aerosol, Pencil, and Varnish Embellishments Size: 17.8125 x 23.75 Inches Release: December 09, 2021 Run of: 15 Denial’s Decycled Versace: The Medicine of Branding in Contemporary Street Pop Art Denial’s Decycled Versace, released in 2021 as a hand-embellished archival pigment print, continues the artist’s sharp interrogation of brand worship, identity construction, and the seductive aesthetics of consumerism. Each edition in this 15-print run measures 17.8125 by 23.75 inches, uniquely altered with collage, aerosol, pencil, and varnish layers. Centered within a baroque gold frame, the work features a large, stylized capsule—branded with the iconic Versace Medusa head—set against a background of jagged patterns and fractured color fields. The capsule is marked 100MG, reinforcing its identity as both visual object and conceptual drug. Denial, also known as Daniel Bombardier, uses the pill as a central form throughout his Decycled series to comment on the addictive nature of status and the role luxury logos play in modern identity. By embedding the Versace logo inside the capsule, the work equates brand consumption with self-medication. The gesture is neither glorification nor condemnation—it is exposure. The logo becomes an ingredient, the dosage carefully calculated to deliver an emotional or social high. In this way, Decycled Versace critiques not only the brand but the cultural systems that elevate such symbols to near-mythological status. Visual Noise and Symbolic Disruption The background of Decycled Versace is composed of sharp diagonal slices, splatter textures, halftone fields, and expressive spray lines. These elements reference both traditional graffiti techniques and digital design aesthetics. The layering creates visual tension that denies stillness or easy resolution. Against this chaotic backdrop, the sleek and glowing pill shape appears almost sterile in contrast. The effect is disorienting but intentional—luxury, the work seems to suggest, thrives when placed above the messiness it claims to erase. The Medusa head, a long-standing Versace emblem tied to Greek mythology and themes of desire and danger, is reclaimed here as an icon of consumer hypnosis. Placed inside the pill, it becomes an object of internalization. Denial’s use of halftones and rough stenciling techniques further destabilizes the polished aura of the brand, reminding viewers that behind every clean logo is a constructed illusion. In the context of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, the work reclaims visual space from marketing systems and redistributes it as artistic critique. The Framed Illusion of Power and Permanence The ornate gold frame surrounding Decycled Versace plays a critical role in the piece’s messaging. Traditionally associated with classical portraiture and gallery sanctity, the frame lends artificial authority to the artwork. But that reverence is undercut by the content inside—messy, chaotic, ruptured. The pill format, designed to look sleek and scientific, floats inside this field like a sacred relic. The dissonance between material refinement and conceptual rebellion is where the piece gains its weight. Denial’s manipulation of the fine art object mirrors the dual lives of luxury brands, which often straddle the lines between exclusivity and mass visibility. Decycled Versace exists as both critique and artifact of the very system it exposes. By transforming brand logos into medicinal metaphors, Denial forces a reevaluation of how identity is consumed, and how branding operates as both symptom and cure in modern culture. Within the language of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, this piece functions not just as commentary but as a dose of visual clarity in a culture addicted to image.
