ROLLOUT x Bandit Limited Edition Stencil Prints on Wallpaper
ROLLOUT was asked by Julie and Shaun of Made to participate in the second installment of new Canadian design showcase Radiant Dark. The show's theme was Elegant Corruptions. We decided to ask our good friend Bandit to give us a hand. Our concept for this commission was based around the sometimes fractious but always symbiotic relationship between artistic practice and the worlds of finance and commerce. We were interested in the ways that artist, especially artists who identify themselves as stencil artists, often gain graphic impact and build artistic reputations by co-opting and critiquing the signs and symbols of financial power. Yet with the rising acceptance and success of stencil artists such as UK artist Banksy, whose graffiti works now sell for hundreds of thousands of pounds, the relationship becomes much more complex and intertwined. The artist who has made his name attacking the establishment becomes the establishment.
