Stik, by mojo on Feb 16, 2023 23:35:11 GMT 1, I literally cannot believe someone is trying to profiteer from one of these kids prints, so shameful that you have probably taken your child to an amazing event like this to get them interested in urban and contemporary art, only cynically to have used them for your own ends for making money, this makes me sick to my stomach TBH! I hear what you are saying however to be fair and with respect to Stik thousands of people have taken their kids to this project and many won't have a clue that they would be able to sell them around the world to art collectors. Today I saw quite a few people carrying tubes with a few children in tow and they could well have queued up every afternoon? I also saw at least a hundred children literally destroying them by whacking each other with them, just playing but obviously their parents aren't forum members! For many people it was just a bit of fun for the kids at half term. There's a cost of living crisis so perhaps for some that are in the know the cash is more important than a print? I'd never get Roxy's back...I've trained her too well, although she may sell in 15 years to pay for university fee's.

Or maybe they need the money to feed the child or provide for them. Letโs not get on our high horses too much, everyoneโs situation is different Possibly, but i don't think anyone who went to that Stick event was living on the poverty line TBH and was worried about how they were going to feed their children that night.

Stik, by gus on Feb 16, 2023 23:53:44 GMT 1, Selling seems a pretty key component of urban and contemporary art, and any interest in it, no?
Of all the crazy shit happening in the world, this seems pretty easy to understand.
If I had to crudely guess, Iโd guess that some people at the event were for sure in a place where a couple 100 $ could be far more useful than a Stik print on the wallโฆ
Selling doesnโt take away from it being a fun thing to do with your kiddo.
Not selling mine as Iโm not in a place where I need to, but if the money was a meaningful sum, of course I would. The kid would probably learn more, and have had a fun day. Oh no, what a travesty.

Itโs a flimsy bit of paper, thereโll never be any provenance, and it was made by them not Stik. But it is fun and the kids enjoyed it. I love these works. I think they look amazing also. No kids unfortunately But at least you have a social life.

Sure we all like to have investments but this was just a nice thing for Stik to do for children. Itโs not about flogging on eBay the day after and who ever has is an absolute moron. Karma will catch up with you and all for a quick buck

Without buyers there would be no sellers, and the dirty buyers continue to create demand and are mostly getting away with it unscathed.
The sellers : poor Lambethites trying to feed their families
The buyers : rich aristocrats buying joyful Stik prints destroying future appreciation by the poors, making art not about such joy but money, AGAIN!
Time we start laying blame where it is deserved, and hold the rich buyers accountable for potentially destroying the lives of the innocent Lambeth Borough sellers.

I have a friend that wants one but couldnโt make the trip because their baby is only three weeks old and the trip would have been just too much to make. Others may not even live in this country.
