Mart Signed - Hakuna matata

Bricks & Etruscan Building Material Indefinite dimensions due to wall break effect Game, Cartoon & Manga In this series, characters from the world of video games, cartoons and manga become an integral part of the wall. They are not simply depicted on the surface: they move, interact and live directly inside it, transforming the wall itself into part of the artwork and the scene. An extension of Broken Wall, where image, matter and space become one. The work can be hung as is or as in the photo. The photos with frames are only an example of how the artist recommends exhibiting the work; the frame is not included in the sale. Only the artwork will be shipped. Paste-up (also called Poster Art or Wheatpasting) is one of the most widespread and impactful techniques of Street Art. It consists of applying to urban walls drawings, illustrations or photos previously made on paper, using a liquid glue. Technique: Spray and mixed media on materials recovered from the street, selected to preserve the identity and authenticity of the street art language. Technique specified in terms: The paste-up (or poster art) is a street art technique in which the artist produces the work on paper in the studio and then glues it to a wall on the street. Dimensions: The indicated dimensions refer to the proposed exemplar and should be considered approximate due to the shape and irregular perimeter of the fragment. Certificate of authenticity: Included and signed by the artist. Broken Wall Broken Wall was born from Mart Signed’s exploration of the relationship between street art, matter and urban memory. The project brings inside homes, galleries and private collections a fragment of street language, transforming a surface marked by time into a contemporary artwork. The wall is not only the support for the image, but becomes an integral part of the work. Its surface, the ruptures, the traces of time and the natural characteristics of the material preserve the link with the urban context from which street art arises. The fracture thus becomes an element of the artistic language: the boundary between the street and the exhibition space is broken and the urban fragment finds a new place. Materials and authenticity Materials recovered from the street are chosen to maintain the living relationship with the original street art language. Marks, abrasions, surface variations, irregularities and natural imperfections are not defects, but elements belonging to the history of the material and to the identity of the work. These characteristics are deliberately preserved and integrated into the creative process. The work is signed, accompanied by a signed certificate of authenticity, and delivered ready to be hung. The frame is not included, unless otherwise indicated for the specific exemplar. Instagram and project participation The journey of the work can continue even after purchase. Collectors can share their work on Instagram by tagging @martsigned and using the hashtag #MartSigned. Works correctly tagged may be reshared by the artist via their channels, showing the different destinations reached by the works and creating a direct connection between artist, collector and the public. Occasionally, special initiatives, raffles or small street art gifts may be organized through social networks. Participation is optional and independent of the purchase of the work. Any terms and conditions will be communicated through the artist’s official channels. The artist Mart Signed is an Italian street artist active internationally. His works are part of private collections in numerous countries and his artistic research revolves around the concept “Where Are You Street Art?”: bringing the language and matter of the street inside homes, galleries, private collections and spaces traditionally distant from the urban context. Over the years, Mart Signed has developed his international presence through collaborations and relations with various art-world entities. His research connects street art, urban memory, recovered materials and the transformation of space. In 2023 Mart Signed also participated in a documentary dedicated to Banksy and to street art culture. Shipping The work is shipped via specialized couriers managed by Mail Boxes Etc. Each piece is carefully packed, protected and insured, with particular attention to the most delicate parts and to the irregular shape of the support. Shipping is tracked end-to-end, from departure to delivery. In case of a high volume of shipments, preparation and delivery may require a few additional days. For any information regarding shipping, you can contact the artist directly via the platform. Edition and uniqueness Broken Wall comprises a limited series of 20 unique works. Each piece is produced individually and no two are identical. The shape of the support, the rupture, the surface, the marks, the imperfections and the material characteristics naturally vary from piece to piece, making each piece irreplaceable. The 20 works share the same artistic project and the same conceptual nucleus, but each maintains its own physical and visual identity. They are therefore not 20 copies or reproductions of the same work, but 20 unique and different pieces, all belonging to the Broken Wall series. Each work is identified by a specific code on the certificate of authenticity.
