Eddy Bennett - Safety Last
Safety Last
Gold Leaf Edition | Limited Edition Silkscreen
A bold fusion of vintage Americana and contemporary street-pop aesthetics, Safety Last reimagines the classic rodeo poster through the unmistakable lens of modern urban art. Bursting with vibrant colour, movement and attitude, the piece combines nostalgic fairground typography with a fearless central figure, creating an artwork that feels both timeless and rebellious.
Hand pulled using a meticulous 6-layer silkscreen process, each print is individually gilded with genuine 23ct gold leaf and finished with diamond dust embellishments, giving the artwork incredible depth, texture and light reflection. The contrast between the rich pink background, ornate gold detailing and distressed western imagery creates a striking statement piece that commands attention in any interior.
Printed on luxurious Somerset tub-sized 410gsm paper with hand-torn deckled edges, Safety Last balances traditional printmaking craftsmanship with a contemporary edge. The rarity of the edition, combined with the handcrafted finishing techniques, ensures every piece possesses its own unique character.
Perfectly suited to collectors of urban, contemporary and statement artwork, Safety Last captures the energy of risk, spectacle and nostalgia while celebrating the artistry of traditional screen printing.
