Werm – "Vintage Graffiti" Original

WERM – Vintage Graffiti

Old-school surroundings meet contemporary Bristol graffiti in this completely unique original from Werm.

For this piece, Werm takes his distinctive graffiti lettering away from the conventional canvas and places it against a vintage patterned fabric backdrop, finished in an ornate, aged frame. The contrast is what makes the piece work: bold street lettering presented with the character of something that could have been hanging on a wall for decades.

Deep purple, red, green and gold tones build the central graffiti piece, with crisp outlines, dimensional lettering and Werm's hand-painted highlights bringing the work forward from the softer vintage background.

The aged frame isn't something we'd want to disguise or replace. Its wear and character become part of the artwork, creating a genuinely unusual meeting point between graffiti culture and vintage interior design.

At 66 × 66 cm, it's a substantial square piece with enough presence to work as a standalone feature artwork without overwhelming a room.

This is a unique, one-off original. Once it's gone, it's gone.

About Werm

Bristol-based artist Werm combines traditional graffiti lettering with illustration, graphic design and an interest in unusual and reclaimed surfaces.

Vintage Graffiti is a particularly distinctive example. Instead of separating street art from traditional interiors, Werm deliberately brings the two worlds together. The ornate frame and patterned background could hardly be further removed from a graffiti wall, and that's exactly why the combination has such impact.

It's graffiti with history, character and a completely unexpected presentation.
