About Obey Giant
Obey Giant is a street art campaign and an experiment in phenomenology by artist Shepard Fairey. Its sole purpose is to make people question their surroundings. Shepard started the campaign in 1989 while attending RISD (Rhode Island School of Design) in Providence. The "experiment in phenomenology" is pushed through stickers and prints alone. Shepard's other artistic works often include screen prints (including bands), skateboards, clothing, and toys. Although many of these works include imagery from Obey Giant, they are not regularly considered part of the campaign.
