- Lot Description
Miss Bugs (20th Century, UK): Do No Harm 2 (Social/ Orange), 2020. Cast Resin Syringe with original vacuum formed case with pearlescent inlay card, care instructions, and certificate of authenticity signed by the artist, from an edition of 450.
The Do No Harm 2: The Syringe Series delivers perhaps a more focused message with three different drugs: Emoji, Luxury and Social. Each design is a reminder of the powerful influence that mobile phones, coveted luxury brands, and social media have on people. Whether through commanding increasing demands on users’ attention and time or becoming an all-consuming goal, each seemingly innocuous phenomena has definite drawbacks and dangers.
Miss Bugs are a London-based street-art partnership (a boy and a girl), working together since 2007. From their early days, they have preferred to keep a low profile choosing to communicate through their artwork rather than through media appearances, therefore, not much is known about them.
Daring and dynamic, Street Art has roots in a controversial past. Long-considered vandalism, it was during the 1970s and 1980s that artists revolutionized the aesthetic, bringing their individual styles to a fine art audience and leading the way for the next generation of artists that includes the likes of Barry McGee, Invader, Mr. Brainwash, Banksy, and Brazilian twins Os Gemeos.
