Dolk • Girl With Teddy, by dave313perry on Aug 31, 2007 20:04:59 GMT 1, Each to their own
Simply referred to the way composition is used in Banksy's Barcode snake - no comparison in content
Sitting there in the middle just suggests far too much significance to me, but thats just my taste and outlook on the execution of the print

I guess it's similar in a way how you disliked the wax seal on the Evolution APs snakes. As Dave says each to their own.
I think the AP wax seals were a great touch to Frankie's releases and would prefer Dolks tag bottom right on Teddy.
To pinch your advice snakes, there's always Tippex!!

I'm in complete agreement that the tag should be removed or at least reduced in size and repositioned. In it's current spot it's just too distracting.
I probably would centre the image though, because the above doesn't quite work for me either.
Tag or no tag, great image though. Even if I am still a little undecided as to what the message of the piece is.

Frankie's wax seals were a great touch, he got it right with the BeforeChrome - bottom left hand corner and i agree that the tag would prob have been better on bottom right.
Still i have a print on its way to me from HMP and i am just happy i managed to be up early enough and not to be working when they were released. So many thanks Dolk, Morten and all the other guys at HMP.

Actually I can agree with you a bit jjoschi. But I don´t think you should center the girl, I like the void that appears when you delete the tag. It gives the scene an extra tension and something that makes you feel uncertain on what´s going on. But anyhow, tag or no tag, it is a stunning piece and I really love it ;D
This is by the way my second Dolk, the first I bought was Che XL. And to be honest, this is a bit better both technical and artistic in my opinion.

Dolk • Girl With Teddy, by Strange Al on Aug 31, 2007 21:01:13 GMT 1, Charger - on further reflection, I actually quite like the void too. It definitely gives the piece an even greater feeling of tension. Though I'd think about extending the shadow a little further into the right corner. I think the tension would remain, but would give the piece a little more balance.

i took them out with a blunt kitchen knife first. got them well out the way. I know the excitement of getting a new print is so much that youve got it out the tube before the postman's got the lid back on his pen, just take your time ;D

really nice quality about the print, don't you think snakes? definitely a print from an original stencil rather than an image straight from the computer. I'm really pleased with it

Yeah, its lovely. Very similar in quality to the last two in that it has that street feel to it.
Yep, another fantastic piece from Dolk, just wished i had got my hands on one of the Burger Kings when they were £50 on POW, but then again i was in Singapore at the time spending instead on their local art works and carvings!
It'll just have to be one of those prints that i wish i had, but now cannot afford.

The child abuse notion makes me uncomfortable and I'm not convinced. My interpretation is that it relates to the way in which adults try to lock/handcuff their kids into the safety and innocence of childhood for as long as possible, despite the realities of the world that the children have to face up to. Don't care if it's bullshit, it will help me feel okay about mounting it. Whoops, no double entende intended.
