About This Print
Flint Eye Alert Globe is a 2017 four-color screenprint on 100lb French True White Speckletone paper, measuring 18 x 24 inches, issued in an edition of 450 and published by 1xRUN. Based on a painting from Fairey's 'Earth Crisis' show in Paris, the print uses blue and turquoise tones to evoke the air and water essential to life. Fairey pairs an eye-and-globe motif with a blooming flower, which he describes as a symbol of both beauty and growth. The work argues that humanity must recognize its dependence on nature, warning that continued damage to air and water threatens growth and health.
