Mart Signed (XX) - FEAR OF CONTACT ( broken wall)

Mart Signed (XX) - FEAR OF CONTACT ( broken wall)

Gallery value: Original stencil works by Mart Signed, not prints, are offered through European galleries with indicative quotations ranging roughly between €3,000 and €4,000, testimony to the positioning and collecting interest reached by the artist's work. Technique: Spray stencil on materials recovered from the street, selected to preserve the identity and authenticity of the street art language. Dimensions: The indicated dimensions refer to the offered specimen and should be considered approximate due to the irregular shape and perimeter of the fragment. Certificate of authenticity: Included and signed by the artist. Broken Wall Broken Wall arises from Mart Signed's exploration of the relationship between street art, matter, and urban memory. The project brings a fragment of the street language into homes, galleries, and private collections, transforming a surface marked by time into a contemporary artwork. The wall is not merely the support for the image, but becomes an integral part of the work. Its surface, the breaks, the traces of time, and the natural characteristics of the material preserve the link with the urban context from which street art is born. 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. The work The work does not impose an answer, but leaves each observer free to find their own interpretation. The stencil is created directly on the support: this is not a print or a reproduction. The work depicted in the photographs is exactly what will be received by the collector. Materials and authenticity Materials recovered from the street are chosen to maintain a living connection with the original street art language. Signs, abrasions, surface variations, irregularities, and natural imperfections are not defects, but elements belonging to the history of the material and the identity of the work. These characteristics are deliberately preserved and integrated into the creative process. The work is signed, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist, and delivered ready to be hung. The frame is not included, unless otherwise indicated for the specific specimen. 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 properly tagged can be reshared by the artist through their channels, showing the different destinations reached by the works and creating a direct connection between artist, collector, and the public. Periodically, through social networks, special initiatives, lotteries, or small street art-related gifts may also be organized. Participation is voluntary and independent from the purchase of the work. Any methods 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 develops 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 relationships with various realities in the art world. His research connects street art, urban memory, recovered materials, and space transformation. In 2023, Mart Signed also participated in a documentary dedicated to Banksy and street art culture. Shipping The work is shipped through specialized couriers managed by Mail Boxes Etc. Each piece is carefully packed, protected, and insured, with particular attention to the most delicate parts and the irregular shape of the support. Shipping includes full tracking from departure to delivery. In case of a high volume of shipments, preparation and delivery may take a few additional days. For any information regarding shipping, you may contact the artist directly via the platform. Edition and uniqueness Broken Wall comprises a limited series of 20 unique works. Each piece is created individually and no specimen can be identical to another. The shape of the support, the fracture, the surface, the marks, the imperfections, and the material characteristics naturally vary from one piece to another, making each piece unrepeatable. The 20 works share the same artistic concept and core idea, but each retains its own physical and visual identity. Thus, they are not 20 copies or reproductions of the same work, but 20 unique and different pieces, all part of the Broken Wall series. Each work is identified by a specific code printed on the certificate of authenticity.
