Obey (Shepard Fairey), Half Face AC HPM, silkscreen print and collage paper on LP cover, 30.5x30.5 cm, 2008
Half Face AC HPM is a silkscreen print and paper collage, executed on an LP (vinyl) cover, by the American street artist Shepard Fairey, also known as Obey.
The work looks exactly like a record cover: this recalls Obey's great connection with the world of music and his great interest in the singers he portrays in many of his subjects.
The work depicts a woman's face seen in profile, in which only the left side is coloured in a beige tone with black stripes; throughout the rest of the surface the prevailing colour is black. The work is dated 2008, is signed at the bottom right and numbered in a limited edition of only eight pieces.
