SHEPARD FAIREY OBEY "MUJER FATALE" 36x24 PRODUCTION ARCHIVE PRINT + COA
DETAILS
Offered here is a documented OBEY / Shepard Fairey "Mujer Fatale" large-format Production Archive Print measuring approximately 36x24 inches.
These pieces were acquired from a former employee of Primary Color Systems and retained following production activities associated with Primary Color Systems in 2018. Based on paper stock, print characteristics, and documented provenance, these are believed to be production proofs, test prints, or end-of-run production pulls rather than standard numbered retail editions.
This Production Archive Print is printed on off-white heavyweight art paper stock, with the paper stock individually identified and recorded as part of CardHive Collectibles' provenance documentation.
DESCRIPTION
Mujer Fatale is a striking portrait print by renowned contemporary street artist Shepard Fairey, showcasing his signature fusion of bold graphic design, cultural influences, and social commentary. First introduced in the mid-2000s and later released in multiple editions, the artwork has become one of Fairey's most recognizable female portrait compositions.
The image features a mysterious and determined woman whose direct gaze immediately commands attention. Intricate textile patterns, a distinctive head covering, and a prominent star emblem contribute to the artwork's powerful visual presence. Rendered in Fairey's iconic cream, black, and red palette, the composition combines strong contrast, clean graphic forms, and meticulous detail to create an image that is both elegant and impactful.
The artwork draws inspiration from themes of empowerment, resistance, and cultural identity. Often associated with imagery linked to social movements and grassroots activism, the portrait reflects Fairey's long-standing interest in creating works that celebrate resilience, independence, and the strength of individuals who challenge convention.
Influenced by propaganda graphics, political poster art, and contemporary street art, Mujer Fatale exemplifies Fairey's ability to merge powerful symbolism with sophisticated graphic design. The balanced composition and commanding portraiture create a timeless image that continues to resonate with collectors around the world.
A standout addition for collectors of contemporary art, street art, portraiture, and politically inspired graphic design, Mujer Fatale remains one of Shepard Fairey's most compelling and visually recognizable works.
