Original Spray Stencil on Recycled Elephant Dung Paper
Being is a contemporary British street artist whose work combines humour, satire and social observation through the medium of stencil art. Drawing inspiration from everyday life, popular culture and the natural world, Being creates artworks that balance playful imagery with sharp wit, often encouraging viewers to look beyond the obvious and discover a deeper narrative beneath the surface.
This original artwork was created as a one-off piece in support of fundraising efforts for Glasgow Children's Hospital. Executed as a spray stencil on recycled elephant dung paper, the work combines the raw immediacy of street art with a unique handmade surface, resulting in a piece rich in character, texture and individuality.
Titled A Little Shit, the artwork presents a humorous and irreverent scene featuring an elephant caught in a moment of mischievous honesty. The carefully layered stencil work and subtle paint detailing create depth and movement, while the playful visual joke highlights Being's talent for transforming simple imagery into memorable contemporary art. Balancing humour with technical skill, the piece captures the artist's distinctive approach to storytelling through stencil art.
This artwork comes from a private collection assembled in support of children's charities. For deeply personal reasons, the collector has chosen to continue that charitable legacy, with a donation from the sale of each piece from the collection being made to Bristol Children's Hospital.
As a unique original artwork and part of a collection with a meaningful charitable story, this piece offers collectors the opportunity to acquire not only a one-of-a-kind work of art but also to contribute towards an important cause.
