Caught Fire (Pink / Blue) is a 2022 print in acrylic and silkscreen ink on archival paper, sized 31 x 39 inches in an edition of 22.

Why It Matters
With an edition of 22 and hand-applied acrylic, Caught Fire (Pink / Blue) is a scarce, variation-rich piece. The large 31 x 39 inch format gives the composition strong presence, and the specific Pink/Blue colorway distinguishes it from sibling variants, a hallmark of Faile's colorway-based release strategy.
Collector Perspective
The low edition of 22 and hand-painting make impression-level individuality and condition central. Collectors should verify the signature, stamp, and emboss, and understand the Pink/Blue name denotes one of several colorways. The acrylic layers warrant condition scrutiny given the scarcity and scale of the work.
Historical Context
Faile routinely releases a composition in multiple small-edition colorways, each hand-finished, rewarding collectors who chase variants. Caught Fire (Pink / Blue) reflects this method, combining screen printing with acrylic hand-work at large scale, consistent with the studio's 2022 editioned practice.
