AI-assisted summary

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 only the support of 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 originates.
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
The work does not impose a single answer, but allows each observer the freedom 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 the collector will receive.
Materials and authenticity
The materials recovered from the street are chosen to maintain the living 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 material's history 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 certificate of authenticity signed by the artist, and delivered ready to hang.
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 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, special initiatives, raffles, or small street-art-related gifts may also be organized through social networks.
Participation is optional and independent from the purchase of the work. Any modalities 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 develops around the concept “Where Are You Street Art?”: bringing the language and material of the street inside homes, galleries, private collections, and spaces traditionally distant from the urban context.
Over the years, Mart Signed has developed international presence through collaborations and relationships with various art-world entities.
His research links street art, urban memory, recovered materials, and the transformation of space.
In 2023, Mart Signed also participated in a documentary about Banksy and 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 the irregular shape of the support.
The shipment includes full tracking, from dispatch to delivery.
In case of a high volume of shipments, preparation and delivery may take a few additional days.
For any shipping information, 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 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 project and the same conceptual core, 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 listed on the certificate of authenticity.
