Mighty Tanaka presents:
Iconography, A Reflection of Anonymity
Featuring the work of Matt Siren, Peat Wollaeger (stenSOUL), Royce
Bannon,
Chris & Veng of Robots Will Kill and 2Esae & SKI of URnewyork
New York City is rich with colors, sounds, textures, personal
exchanges and human interactions, a scene constantly in motion.
Through the busy veil of urban lifestyles is an artistic detail that
binds the city together. Mighty Tanaka is excited to present:
Iconography, A Reflection of Anonymity. Featuring the artwork of Matt
Siren, Peat Wollaeger (stenSOUL), Royce Bannon, Chris and Veng of
Robots Will Kill and 2Esae and SKI of URnewyork, they represent an
accurate cross section of the
street art one finds in NYC and beyond.
Each artist demonstrates their own personal blend of techniques and
styles as they have developed a highly personalized means of branding
their work, and ultimately, themselves. The icons they choose to
place on the streets hold an individualized significance, a means of
projecting self onto a surface interpreted by the general public.
Their work represents a generation’s visionary artistic approach to
the urban landscape.
Through a variety of methods including wheat paste, screen print,
spray paint, stencils and more, their chosen techniques encompass a
broad spectrum of what one encounters on the streets today. However,
it is the integrity of the iconic imagery that translates the rawness
of the streets into the refinement of the gallery setting.
