Faile
Faile is an international artist collective formed in 1999 and based in Brooklyn, New York. They are recognised as some of the pioneers of global contemporary street art. From initially wheatpasting screen printed posters on the streets of New York and major world cities, they progressed to the more permanent medium of stencil graffiti.
Their instantly recognisable gritty pop culture images in posters and stencils have allowed Faile to diversify into other areas encompassing fine art, sculpture, design, fashion, music and housewares. Despite this, the core of their work remains printmaking, stenciling and painting. On the surface, Faile's work often appears to be images taken from comic books, pulp fiction novels and even Yellow Pages adverts. There are however a number of concepts which underlie Faile's gritty pop culture graphics. Most notably these are dualism and collaboration.
