"The whole idea behind my Trusted Brands series was that I wanted to revisit many of the iconic logos of my youth to reconnect to familiar things. These pieces are mostly made of handmade fiber papers from India and Nepal. I wanted to do something rivaling my friends who used spray paint and connected with my graffiti roots, but I didn't want to do what everybody else did. I thought it would be interesting to challenge myself to use a medium I have never used before, and collage spoke to me." - Cey Adams.

Cey Adams' "Shell" - A Convergence of Branding and Art

Cey Adams, a foundational figure in graffiti and street pop art, presents a compelling piece in his "Shell PP Printers Proof Limited Edition." This work is part of Adams' "Trusted Brands" series, where he revisits the emblematic logos that marked his youth. The print, an 18x18 archival pigment on fine art paper, showcases his exploration into collage, setting him apart from his contemporaries who favored spray paint. This piece is a Printer's Proof, signed and marked by Adams, adding a layer of exclusivity and collectibility. Adams' choice to use handmade fiber papers from India and Nepal lends an organic texture that contrasts with the commercial sharpness of the Shell logo. His work is a nod to nostalgia and a dialogue between past and present, consumerism and craftsmanship. The "Shell" piece stands out as a testament to Adams' ability to innovate within his graffiti roots while pushing the boundaries of his artistic expression. In Adams' own words, his college journey was challenging to escape the graffiti norm. His "Trusted Brands" series, including the "Shell" print, reflects this personal and artistic quest to connect with familiar symbols uniquely, embodying the essence of modern pop art within the urban landscape.
