He makes sculptures, photographs and works on paper documenting his journeys around the world, from long walks across Dartmoor in England to the peaks of Antarctica. He achieved prominence in 1967 with his seminal work A Line Made by Walking, conceived when he was still a student at St. Martin's School of Art, London.

UNIQUE Drawings on Everything is Shit Except You Love (How We Met is Our Story)
Located in New York, NY
Stephen Powers Everything is Shit Except You Love (How We Met is Our Story), with unique drawings, 2017 Original graphite drawings on screen print in four colors on 335 gsm Coventry rag paper Pencil signed, numbered 2/100 and with unique pencil drawings and annotations by the artist 12 x 12 inches Unframed Here, the artist has taken one of his most iconic and popular silkscreens "Everything is Shit Except You Love", and added unique, original drawings and text annotations - telling a charming and unique story ideal for any couple's bedroom, living room or dining room. This drawing depicts the image of a pencil, in the midst of writing, with the text "How we met is our story" - and an image of coffee and croissants. There are also stacks of $$ bills, with the commentary "it all evens out", and perhaps most charmingly, the artist has numbered the work 2/50 -- then corrected it to number 2/100, with the annotation "Sorry, wrong number." So, while the published edition of this work is 2/100, the epiphanies, drawings, and text commentary make it entirely unique - and quite romantic too. About Stephen Powers A Fulbright scholar who has been awarded many public commissions and exhibited in major institutions like the Brooklyn Museum.... Born and raised in Philadelphia’s Overbrook neighborhood, Stephen Powers (b. 1968, Philadelphia) moved to New York in 1994, where he gained attention as the publisher of On the Go magazine and the author of the graffiti history The Art of Getting Over. In 1997, Powers undertook an ambitious and far-reaching graffiti campaign of his own, using the official-sounding acronym ESPO (Exterior Surface Painting Outreach) to deflect attention from the illegality of his activities. By 1999, he had covered dozens of storefront grates with giant silver block lettering. Powers gave up street graffiti the following year to concentrate on studio-based projects. Powers’s work typically fuses word and image in paintings and graphics that evoke the bright look of a handmade bodega and fairground...
