Hip (red) is an offset lithograph from 2013 by artist, Stik. Printed in red, white and black, this print depicts a stickman looking to the side and resting a hand on his side. The print was crafted in collaboration with The Big Issue Japan, and based upon a detail from an eighteenth century print by Utagawa Hiroshige. This followed his collaboration with The Big Issue UK, entitled The Big Issue.
The six-line figure that is Stik's hallmark often elicits an atmosphere of tension and strain: the square body and absence of a neck suggest elevated shoulders, squeezing the upper body against extended limbs.
Hip is another careful study of a person just standing and staring, and it demonstrates Stik's exceptional ability to capture the nuanced features of standing bodies in his minimalist six-line figures. In this piece, Stik expresses his intention to "condense" the characteristics of the body into his minimalist compositions.
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.
