About the Item
Faile
The art collective Faile, is formed by Patrick Miller and Patrick McNeil. Both artists met at school and studied graphic design. In 1999 they formed a group with the nickname A-Life, under which (and under the influence of a young Shepard Fairey) they began to wheatpaste their posters around the big American cities. Soon they met who would become a third temporary member, the Japanese Aiko Nakagawa. In 2006, she would leave the group to start her own solo career and today is known as Lady Aiko. After an arrest, precisely for wheatpasting, they changed the name of the group to Faile (anagram of A-Life). Soon after they already had created an image and began to expand their brand to other continents sticking their designs on the streets of other cities in Europe and Asia. Like Obey, this group aims to create social criticism, generate artistic interest and awareness. Faile was part of that group of young emerging artists of the urban subculture that promoted the art in the streets. With their printed impressions, Faile promotes the access of the artwork to the general public at affordable prices. They began working with the stencil, preferring this technique because their work would have more durability. Gradually they combined it with painting, mixed media and collage. Thanks to his extensive knowledge in printing techniques, these two artists have taken the collage to another level and in his works can see how many printed layers are superimposed on top of each other to later be torn, suggesting the lower layers. As Mimmo Rotella did a few decades before, Faile creates their own version of the decollage technique. The work of these artists is highly influenced by the comic, film and fiction novels. If we look at the aesthetics of their work we can see how this neo pop art presented to us, represents its own modern version of the aesthetics of Roy Lichtenstein and, as already mentioned, an improved technique of Mimmo Rotella's decollage. All their works explore the world of contradictions and how they complement each other, based on the theory of yin-yang. So opposites as love and hatred, violence and peace or beauty and ugliness share the limelight in their paintings. Faile members currently reside in Brooklyn, New York, where they have their workshop. Their current creations explore media, from traditional canvas to other more diverse as wood or glass. They also have a very prolific activity by editing their own limited edition prints, and creating their own line of merchandising. So far they have published four books with their works entitled "Orange", "Death", "Boredom" and "Lavender”. Their works are internationally recognized and has been exhibited in major galleries around the world. Some of them have come to get tens of thousands of euros.

Gavin uses both vivid colours and expressive strokes to create engaging and lively pieces - his recent painting series ‘Landscapes of the Mind’ used the fluidity and movement of the paint to convey how an environment can effect ones state of thinking. Alongside his painting, Gavin is an established screen-printer exhibiting at many galleries across the U.K. and with new clients in New York his international profile is starting to expand. A regular at the Affordable Arts Fair, Gavin was one of 20 artists chosen to work alongside Film Four for an exhibition at Somerset House. His screen-prints often depict colourful, nostalgic images. Iconic designs which are humorous ornamentation and invite an opening for conversation. Gavin takes an original painting and creates many separate layers of half tones to screen-print by hand the final piece. Using this method he captures many textures and depths of colour within a piece of work. He recently designed and created a piece of work for the charity Help Refugee's 'Choose Love' campaign in conjunction with Printclub and the celebrated designer Katharine Hamnett, highlighting the current plight of refugees. Gavin's ongoing dedication has led to various interviews surrounding his work and being featured in The Times by the art critic, Nancy Durrant, as part of her great art gift guide...Category
