The project brings a fragment of street language into homes, galleries, and private collections, transforming a surface marked by time into a contemporary art piece. The work The work does not demand a single answer, but leaves every observer free to find their own interpretation. The stencil is created directly on the support: this is not a print or reproduction. The work depicted in the photographs is exactly the one that the collector will receive. Materials and authenticity Materials recovered from the street are chosen to keep alive the connection with the original language of street art. Marks, abrasions, surface variations, irregularities, and natural imperfections are not defects, but elements that belong 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 certificate of authenticity signed by the artist, 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 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, special initiatives, raffles, or small street art-inspired freebies may also be organized through social networks. Participation is voluntary and independent of the purchase of the work. Any methods and conditions are 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 material of the street into homes, galleries, private collections, and spaces traditionally distant from the urban context. Over the years, Mart Signed has built an international presence through collaborations and relationships with various players in the art world. 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 the street art culture. Shipping The work is shipped via specialized couriers managed by Mail Boxes Etc. Each piece is carefully packaged, protected, and insured, with particular attention to the most delicate parts and to the irregular shape of the support. Shipping includes full tracking from dispatch to delivery. In the 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 through the platform. Edition and uniqueness Broken Wall comprises a limited series of 20 unique works. Each piece is created individually, and no two specimens can be identical. The shape of the support, the break, the surface, the marks, the imperfections, and the material characteristics naturally vary from one work 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. 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 printed on the certificate of authenticity.
