Broken Wall

Broken Wall stems from Mart Signed’s exploration of the relationship between street art, material, and urban memory.

The project brings a fragment of the language of the street into homes, galleries, and private collections, transforming a surface marked by time into a contemporary work of art.

The wall is not merely the support for the image; it becomes an integral part of the work.

Its surface, cracks, traces of time, and the material’s natural characteristics preserve its connection to the urban context from which street art emerges—including the frame.

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 home.

The artwork

The work does not impose an answer, but leaves each viewer free to find their own interpretation.

The stencil is applied directly to the support: this is not a print or reproduction.

The work shown in the photographs is exactly the one the collector will receive.

Materials and authenticity

Materials salvaged from the street are selected to keep the connection with the original language of street art alive.
Please note: the salvaged frame may also have cracks, dents, and other defects due to the use of reclaimed materials.

Marks, abrasions, variations in the surface, irregularities, and natural imperfections are not defects, but elements belonging to the material’s history and the identity of the work.

These characteristics are deliberately preserved and incorporated into the creative process.

The work is signed, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist, and delivered ready to hang.

The frame is not included, unless otherwise specified for the particular piece.

Instagram and participation in the project

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 tagged correctly may be reshared by the artist through their channels, showcasing the different destinations the works reach and creating a direct connection between artist, collector, and audience.

Special events, giveaways, or small gifts related to street art may also be organized periodically through social media.

Participation is optional and independent of the purchase of the work. Any procedures and terms will be announced 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 many countries, and his artistic practice 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 far removed from the urban context.

Over the years, Mart Signed has developed an international presence through collaborations and relationships with various players in the art world.

His practice connects street art, urban memory, reclaimed materials, and the transformation of space.

In 2023, Mart Signed also took part in a documentary dedicated to Banksy and street art culture.

Shipping

The work is shipped via specialist couriers arranged by Mail Boxes Etc.

Each work is carefully packed, protected, and insured, with particular attention paid to the most delicate parts and the irregular shape of the support.

The shipment is fully tracked, from dispatch through to delivery.

If there is a high volume of shipments, preparation and delivery may take a few extra days.

For any shipping-related information, you can contact the artist directly through the platform.

Edition and uniqueness

Broken Wall comprises a limited series of 20 unique works.

Each work is made individually, and no two pieces 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 one of a kind.

The 20 works share the same artistic project and core concept, but each retains its own physical and visual identity.

These 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 shown on the certificate of authenticity.
