Description

We are thrilled to introduce Musart's exclusive original collection, Musart on Decks, which showcases limited edition skateboard decks featuring timeless art masterpieces that beautifully bridge the traditional history of art with contemporary skateboarding culture, all offered at accessible prices.

As part of this collection, we present a limited edition of 100 Brandalised Skateboard Triptychs, inspired by the captivating work of the enigmatic street artist, Banksy. One of Banksy's notable pieces, 'Graffiti is a Crime,' serves as the inspiration for these skateboard triptychs.

'Graffiti is a Crime' first emerged in Chinatown, New York City, in 2013. The stenciled artwork portrays two mischievous children reaching for a can of spray paint. While one might interpret this piece as a reflection of how street art is driven by youth and rebellion, its true meaning is open to individual interpretation, as is the case with all art, especially Banksy's thought-provoking pieces.

With Musart on Decks, we aim to celebrate the intersection of art and skateboarding, offering a unique collection that captures the essence of both worlds. These limited edition skateboard triptychs inspired by Banksy's work are a testament to the power of artistic expression and the ability to spark conversations and ignite imaginations.

Banksy

Banksy

While to this day the person known as Banksy is yet to be identified, we can still understand and chart much of the person’s history and repertoire. Banksy began their artwork in 1990 as a freehand graffiti artist, under the umbrella Crew of the Bristol DryBreadZ. Inspired by a plethora of local street artists and interested in breaking into the underground scene, Banksy was heavily influenced by local talents such as the artists Nick Walker, Inkie, and 3D. Around this time and while tagging many areas around Bristol, Banksy met the photographer Steve Lazarides who would become Banksy’s agent. Lazarides would take this opportunity to sell Banksy’s art through his various channels. Utilizing these stencils for their artwork, Banksy has made numerous pieces that are scattered around the UK, all of which usually contain an anti-war, anti-establishment, or anti-capitalist message. Their work endures to this day, and Banksy continually presents their art around the world not only in street art form but also with galleries and exhibitions.
