Meaning & Analysis

The use of resin is a further example of Stik experimenting with materials of the street in his art, highly reminiscent of his use of traffic lights in his exhibition entitled Walk. The use of resin in a piece destined for the gallery articulates Stik’s vision of his work as a process that is a continuous  “collaboration with the city”. He originally relied on materials found on the street, noting: “I was pretty broke and painted on found materials, pulling things out of rubbish bins.”

The decision to work with resin complicates the neat division between Stik’s street and gallery practice, between which he has tended to draw a contrast. With Plaque, Stik brings materials associated with the urban exterior into the contained environment of the gallery interior.

  • London-based street artist, Stik, is celebrated for his distinctive and minimalistic style. By solely using simple, stick-figures, Stik is able to convey profound messages through his work and advocate for marginalised social communities. Inclusivity and resilience underpin his iconic stick-figure motif, with the likes of Liberty and Single Mum promoting empathy and human connection. Having been homeless when starting out as a graffiti artist, Stik developed an affinity to the Hackney community who helped him find his feet, and he now sees his street art as a way to give back to those who helped him.
