Penny's Rebellion: A Stenciled Riot on Rubles

British street artist Penny incites a miniature uprising with "Riot," a spray-paint and stencil masterpiece on defaced British 5 pounds banknotes.

Why we love this piece and reasons collectors should too:

• Rebellious pound banknotes: The use of defaced British 5 pounds notes transforms everyday currency into a canvas for protest. It's a symbolic act of defiance against the status quo.

• Stencilled Fury: The aggressive, stenciled figures evoke a sense of anger and frustration. Penny captures the raw energy of a riot in miniature.

• A Call to Arms (on Tiny Bills): This piece is a potent reminder that even the smallest voices can rise up in protest.

But Wait, There's More:

• The Power of Three: Using three separate notes creates a sense of repetition and amplifies the message of collective action.

• Limited Edition: Owning a piece of "riotous" currency? That's some serious street art cred with a revolutionary edge.

Penny's "Riot" is a powerful and provocative piece that uses defaced money to challenge authority and ignite a sense of rebellion. It's a testament to the power of street art to spark conversation and inspire change, one tiny stencil at a time.

About the artist:
Penny graduated from Chelsea College of Art Design and Central Saint Martins and quickly established himself within the urban art scene in London. He has received critical acclaim for his hand cut extremely detailed and occasionally mind-boggling tiny stencils with his bare hands.
