Minimalist, mechanical, and hauntingly human. Cars captures Gary Numan at the wheel of his own mythology. Rendered in stark monochrome with bold geometric framing, this portrait evokes the detached elegance of early synthpop. His expression is unreadable, his presence ghostlike, while the background pulses with lyrics that echo the song’s themes of isolation, control, and digital sanctuary.
Pip’s tribute transforms Numan’s robotic cool into a visual mantra. A must have for fans of electronic music, retro-futurist aesthetics, and art that speaks in static and silence.
Here in your car, you’re not alone. You’re iconic.
Gary Numan - Cars (Canvas Prints)
This print is reproduced from Pip's original hand painted acrylic artwork. It is brought to life on a premium canvas giclée print, designed to showcase every detail with rich depth and vibrant colours. The work is one of a series of 10 paintings from Wirral based artist Pip that form the ‘Eighties Synthpop’ collection.
Canvas prints are available in 4 sizes:
- Small 12" x 12" (30cm x 30cm)
- Medium 20" x 20" (50cm x 50cm)
- Large 28" x 28" (70cm x 70cm)
- Extra Large 40" x 40" (100cm x 100cm).
The artwork is printed on to a high quality poly-cotton blend canvas that is wrapped around a thick wooden pine frame that sits off the wall. The print image wraps around the sides of the frame so is perfect to hang straight on to the wall without framing.
Alternatively choose to add a black or white floater frame that create a striking 'floating' effect, giving the art an elegant, modern touch.
Please note that some of the images are provided for illustrative purposes to show how the canvas print is constructed. The actual shipped print will use the specific painting of the selected product ordered.
