Shok-1 is a British artist based in London. Shok-1 holds a degree in Applied Chemistry and is known for spraypainting walls around the world with his X-ray designs. He presents a diagnosis of life in the 21st century, which varies from the glowingly healthy to the pathological.
Shok-1’s artworks are a unique blend of street and science and resonate with a large number of people; from pop culture and street art fans to medical practitioners. X-rays are an extremely difficult subject for an artist to attempt to depict, with a multitude of layers of intricate detail. Shok-1 refrains from using tape or stencils, instead employing cutting-edge freehand techniques to create his X-ray aesthetic. Shok-1 is pro-science, championing Rationalism despite the rise of anti-intellectualism. After the explosion of street culture in the USA in the early 1980s, Shok-1 was one of the pioneers of the movement in Europe and over the course of his 40-year career, the artist has continued to reinvent his work and take risks.
What is a limited edition?
So you’ve found your perfect limited edition artwork, but what does this actually mean? Limited editions are original artworks that an artist creates in a particular print medium, such as a giclée print, screen print or photograph. Our limited edition artworks are specifically created by our talented artists with a maximum edition number in mind. The term ‘limited edition’ refers to the total number of artworks that are available for that particular piece. The edition size can vary widely between artworks, however most of the time our artists create editions in small numbers ranging from 10 to a few hundred.
What is Archival Giclée
Giclée (/ʒiːˈkleɪ/ zhee-KLAY) is a neologism, ultimately derived from the French word gicleur, coined in 1991 by printmaker Jack Duganne for fine art digital prints made using inkjet printers. The name was originally applied to fine art prints created on a modified Iris printer in a process invented in the late 1980s. It has since been used widely to mean any fine-art printing, usually archival, printed by inkjet. It is often used by artists, galleries, and print shops for their high quality printing, but is also used generically for art printing of any quality.
