Covert to Overt (gold) by Shepard Fairey, created in 2016, is a screenprint capturing urban interventions through a triptych composition. Rendered in warm sepia-gold tones, each panel features architectural scenes overlaid with Fairey’s signature motifs, such as the “Obey” icon and a bold “Peace” message. The central image, a water tower being painted with the Obey Giant face, symbolizes the transition from underground activism to public engagement. This work reflects Fairey’s ongoing dialogue with propaganda, public space, and the aesthetics of resistance. It is part of an edition of 350.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
