American Princess 4 - Gold Leaf By Copyright

With a roll-call of artistic influences - from Hitchcock to Shakespeare, Banksy to the Pre-Raphaelites - it's no surprise that contemporary artist Copyright produces prints of such richness and diversity. With a strong street-art aesthetic, Copyright employs stencils, spray-paint and brush strokes to achieve his culturally attuned works of art. Commenting on the flawed idealism and unattainable visions of beauty presented in fashion, music and popular culture, Copyright's images of the female form look back to classicism and myth, producing highly stylised depictions of beautiful women, adorned with flowers, butterflies and angel wings, while maintaining a modern-day edge. 'American Princess - Gold' celebrates contemporary American culture through the feminine: Copyright has produced a portrait of a beautiful female figure, surrounded by the iconic stars and stripes of the American flag. Merging fine art with lashings of spray paint, Copyright's brilliantly symbolic print is a paragon of the urban-to-canvas aesthetic.
