The lotus, a symbol of harmony, unity, and triumph over adversity, is a recurring motif in my work. I see the lotus as a powerful metaphor, because it is a beautiful flower that blooms in mud. The hands lifting the lotus represent the pursuit of harmony between ourselves and with the planet.
Shepard Fairey (Obey) is one of the major artists of contemporary street art. His powerful graphic style, blending visual propaganda and social engagement, has left a mark on global urban art. Fairey shares artistic and thematic proximity with figures such as Banksy, Invader, Vhils, Blek le Rat, PichiAvo, C215, or Seen, all recognized for their decisive influence on urban culture and the evolution of contemporary art.
