Faile Dino Girl Skateboard Deck Limited Edition 2019
The Dino Girl Deck by Faile is a limited edition skateboard artwork released in 2019, produced as a silkscreen print on a 7-ply maple wood deck measuring approximately 9.5 x 39 inches. Created by the Brooklyn-based artist duo Patrick McNeil and Patrick Miller, Faile is widely known for blending street culture, advertising imagery, and graphic storytelling within contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Issued in an edition of 150, the deck reflects the artists’ long-standing connection to skate culture and their practice of transforming functional objects into collectible art pieces.
Graphic Narrative and Pop Culture Imagery in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork
The artwork features Faile’s signature collage style, combining bold comic-book aesthetics with vintage pulp imagery and urban visual references. At the center, a dynamic female figure appears mid-action while emerging from the jaws of a dinosaur, surrounded by layered cityscape elements, typography, and vibrant splashes of red, yellow, blue, and black. The chaotic yet controlled composition evokes classic monster movie posters and mid-century pop graphics, themes frequently referenced in Faile’s work. This layered storytelling approach is a defining characteristic of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, where fragments of pop culture are recombined into striking new visual narratives.
Skate Decks as Collectible Canvases in Contemporary Street Art
Skateboard decks have become an important medium for artists rooted in graffiti and street culture, serving both as functional objects and as displayable works of art. Printed using silkscreen techniques on durable maple wood, the Dino Girl Deck preserves the tactile qualities of a traditional skateboard while functioning as a limited edition artwork. Through releases like this, Faile continues to expand the reach of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork beyond paper prints and murals, embracing objects that reflect the energy, rebellion, and visual language of skateboarding and urban youth culture.
