Sickboy presents a limited edition series of hand-cast resin temples
Available from Aug 24th
Ten years from the day that he first decided to spray a red and yellow temple instead of his name on walls from here to Bangkok, leading UK graffiti artist Sickboy has immortalised his iconic temple as a collectable 3D resin hand-painted model.
The highly-anticipated hand-cast models are available as a four-strong series representing Love, Peace, Happiness and Death, with each edition a super-exclusive run of 25 featuring an emblem of one of Sickboy’s signature symbols: a heart, a peace sign, an acid face or a skull.
Sickboy says: “Nobody said it was going to be easy, and this definitely wasn’t. I’ve been laughed at by model makers, sneered at by spotty adolescents from Games Workshop, breathed in enough turpentine to keep a glue sniffer happy for years, and ruined my best shirt at the printers. But I couldn’t let this one slip through the net.”
The 3D Temples are produced in the red and yellow Sickboy colour palette (hand-painted red with a yellow resin), are hand-signed and numbered, and presented in a special screen-printed box.
