Why It Matters
The unique-background format means no two examples are alike, blurring the line between edition and original. Combining screenprinting with hand-finishing lets D*Face inject spontaneity into a structured edition, a hallmark of his hybrid practice and a draw for collectors who value one-of-a-kind character within a small run.
Collector Perspective
With 65 examples, each hand-finished with a distinct background, buyers should evaluate every piece on its individual visual merit. The hand-painted elements make condition and surface integrity important. Because it is untitled and variable, confirming the Stolen Space provenance and any signature or numbering is especially valuable.
Historical Context
Stolen Space, founded by D*Face in East London, became a central hub for street and urban contemporary art. A 2008 edition with unique backgrounds reflects the gallery's embrace of hand-worked multiples, capturing a moment when the scene prized individuality within accessible small-edition releases.
