David Bowie has been our ultimate icon, sparking the inspiration for our very first piece of street art in 2018. Inspired by Bowie’s famous mugshot, we applied our mixed media approach, incorporating graffiti-style elements and vibrant pop art details.
This artwork was created based on Bowie's iconic mugshot taken in the mid 70s.
It's a completely unique, handmade mixed media piece consisting of a giclee pasteup, on a stencilled and spray painted wooden canvas (Halo Board) and has a protective UV varnish coating to ensure lasting colour intensity. The lapel has a handmade gold leaf detail.
Halo Board
The artwork is created on a custom made wood canvas created by The Postman. We have named this a ‘Halo Board’ which due to its angled sprayed edges projects a colourful halo inside its Projector Frame.
Projector Frame
We have designed a high end custom hardwood frame which is hand sprayed around the edges and signed on the bottom right corner. The ‘Projector frame’ is a continuation of our Halo boards. The edges are angled which allows them to project a colourful glow onto a wall giving the artwork a sense of illumination and depth.
Hanging Mechanism
The frame is supplied with a heavy duty French Cleat bracket which enables the artwork to sit perfectly flush to the wall.
