À propos de l'œuvre

A stylized figure is depicted in the center of a white sheet of paper, drawn in pen and pencil. The character has an oversized head with hair rendered in undulating, flame-like shapes that extend horizontally. The face is obscured by a large, rectangular visor or headpiece, detailed with an abstract, blocky cityscape motif. Below this, only a small, determined mouth is visible. The figure wears a hooded garment, marked with a prominent athletic brand logo on the chest. The character’s hands are clasped together, holding a rectangular object that appears to be a stylized rendition of the letters “N” and “H” or “H” and “N” intertwined. The lower body consists of broad, geometric legs and feet, giving the impression of stability and a grounded stance. Shading is applied with pencil, creating depth and volume, particularly in the hair, the folds of the clothing, and the architectural elements of the visor. The overall composition is rendered with clean lines and a graphic quality characteristic of character design in graffiti and street art.

Avis de l'expert

This drawing serves as an example of character development within the street art and graffiti tradition, specifically within blackbook culture. Blackbooks are essential archives for graffiti artists, documenting their creative process and stylistic evolution, and works from them are increasingly recognized for their artistic merit and historical value within the movement. The inclusion of specific brand logos and crew affiliations firmly anchors the piece in a contemporary urban context. The market for such works is niche but growing, driven by collectors interested in the origins and foundational elements of street art.

À propos de l'artiste

NOTCH 56 est un artiste issu de la scène du graffiti et de l'art urbain, principalement connu pour ses contributions aux « blackbooks ». Ces carnets de croquis constituent un support essentiel permettant aux graffeurs de développer leurs styles, leurs personnages et leurs formes de lettres, et font souvent l'objet d'échanges au sein de leur communauté. L'artiste est associé à plusieurs collectifs, notamment TFA, DTK, THB, MAGIC DUST INK et TSK (The Stone Killer), ce qui témoigne de son implication de longue date dans des projets collaboratifs et individuels au sein de la scène de l'art urbain. Sa pratique consiste souvent à créer des personnages et des figures stylisées, qui constituent un élément courant du graffiti au-delà du lettrage. Ces personnages présentent fréquemment des motifs visuels et des expressions distinctifs, reflétant l’esthétique personnelle de l’artiste dans le contexte plus large de la culture du street art. Le travail de NOTCH 56 s’inscrit dans une tradition où le style personnel et les compétences techniques sont affinés et partagés entre pairs, contribuant ainsi à l’évolution du graffiti en tant que forme d’art.
