Stickers forever…
CHEER UP is an American artist who has carved a distinct identity within the street art scene, particularly through an enduring presence in sticker culture. Influenced by the raw energy of hardcore punk, the DIY spirit of concert posters, and an unrelenting drive to push creative boundaries, CHEER UP’s artistic journey began in the early ‘90s. However, it wasn't until the mid-2010s that they unleashed their first batch of stickers, sparking a creative evolution that would resonate across the globe.
Since then, the CHEER UP project has exploded, with tens of thousands of stickers circulating in cities worldwide. But stickers are only part of the story. CHEER UP has also delved into zine publishing, producing several series that document today’s street art scene and spotlighting fellow artists who have inspired them along the way. Through a combination of stickers, posters, and zines, CHEER UP continues to shape urban spaces, driven by a passion for discovery and an unwavering commitment to making their mark.
