Mart Signed - Climbing Towards Love (broken wall installation)

Building material
Gallery value: Original stencil works by Mart Signed, not prints, are offered through European galleries with indicative prices ranging roughly between 3,000 and 4,000 euros, testimony to the positioning and collecting interest reached by the artist’s work.

Technique: Broken Wall becomes a play between installation and urban space. Objects, shapes and elements can insert themselves into the wall, dialoguing with its surfaces and transforming its meaning. The wall thus becomes a space to inhabit and reinvent, where even a small intervention can open a new story, in the spirit of street art.

Dimensions: The indicated dimensions refer to the piece proposed 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 arises 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 the language of the street, transforming a surface marked by time into a contemporary art work.

The wall is not only 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 placement.

The work

Each path is marked by a final gesture.
One stroke of the brush transforms 22 into 33, turning a common number into a symbol.
An essential gesture that goes beyond the image: sacrifice, creation, hope and memory meet in a single final mark.

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 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 link 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 the artist-signed certificate of authenticity and delivered ready to be hung.

The frame is not included, unless otherwise indicated for the specific piece.

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 reposted 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, initiatives, draws or small street art-themed freebies may also be organized through social networks.

Participation is optional and independent of the purchase of the work. Any methods and conditions will be communicated through the artist’s official channels.

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 the irregular shape of the support.
Shipping is provided with full tracking, from departure to delivery.
In case of a high number of shipments, preparation and delivery may require a few additional days.

Edition and uniqueness

Broken Wall comprises a limited series of 20 unique works.
Each piece is produced individually and no two pieces can be identical. The shape of the support, the fracture, the surface, the marks, the imperfections and the material characteristics naturally vary from piece to piece, making each item unique.
The 20 works share the same artistic project and the same conceptual core, but each maintains its own physical and visual identity.
They are 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 reported on the certificate of authenticity.
