§ Opening statement
Every surface is monitored. Every advertisement is generated. The last free artists don’t paint walls — they overwrite reality.
Not gangs. Not apocalypse. Not cyberpunk. A culture, built the way a design studio builds a brand.
Plate 00 — Six factions, one row, one night before the wall came down.

Figures filed the way a studio files them — as an operating record, not a sales counter.
LIGHT — 0001
Projected light disappears the moment you stop looking. That's the whole appeal.

Exhibit B — On Signature
Ref 01 · Type
S. HANE · 2026-02-19
A logo is designed to be recognized by a machine. A signature is designed to be recognized by a person who already knows you.
We built the mark system around that distinction. Every member's mark is drawn once, by hand, before it's ever touched by a screen.
It shows up small. On a sleeve, a spray mask, the corner of a poster. It is never the loudest thing in the frame. That's deliberate.
444 editions, six disciplines. This is a wall of the collection, not the whole of it.
