Geometric Dove (Blue Tile)
Work Summary & Collector Notes
Geometric Dove (Blue Tile) is a 2021 Shepard Fairey work published by Underdogs as a ceramic tile rather than a paper print. It is a digital print on tile with a cork base, measuring 15 x 15 cm, with laser signature and numbering, in an edition of 225 plus 25 APs. The image renders a dove in Fairey's geometric, decorative style. This Blue Tile belongs to a larger 2021 set that also includes Black and Red tile variants and related offset and screenprint editions. The dove is a longstanding peace symbol in Fairey's vocabulary, here translated into a small, object-based ceramic format.
