This vibrant, immersive work disrupts assumptions about perception. Through paired sensory terms like HEAR&LISTEN, LOOK&SEE, LEARN&KNOW . Steit invites viewers to reflect on how we experience the world. The background, composed of the primary and secondary colours that recur throughout his practice, evokes the raw immediacy of the senses. With no single focal point, the piece embodies the chaotic, democratic nature of feeling in a saturated age.
Description
Senses Graffiti 01 is loud, colourful conceptual graffiti art driven by movement and sensory overload. The background is built from layers of spray-painted colour, with reds, yellows, greens, blues, and purples bleeding into one another. Splashes and specks break across the surface, creating a feeling of speed, spontaneity, and constant motion, as if multiple sensations are happening at once.
Floating across this energetic field are the recurring word pairings from the artist’s senses series: HEAR&LISTEN, LEARN&KNOW, LOOK&SEE, SMELL&SCENT, TASTE&SAVOUR, and TOUCH&FEEL. The words sit like fragments or signs, slightly tilted and scattered, with no clear centre or hierarchy. The viewer reads them by moving around the piece rather than focusing on a single point.
The graffiti style is deliberate. It introduces tension between fast, impulsive mark-making and language that asks for calm, reflection, and awareness. Paint and text push against each other, amplifying both experiences. The result is a work that explores how we process the world through our senses, and how subtle shifts in language can reshape understanding.
Created in Derbyshire, June 2025.
