Faile Subrosa Limited Edition Skateboard Deck 2019
Faile, the Brooklyn-based artistic collaboration of Patrick McNeil and Patrick Miller, has become widely recognized for blending collage, advertising imagery, and street culture into bold compositions within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The Subrosa Deck, released in 2019, is a limited edition silkscreen skateboard deck measuring approximately 9.10 x 29.15 inches and constructed from traditional 7-ply maple wood. Produced in an edition of 75, each deck includes a certificate of authenticity signed by curator Roger Gastman confirming the edition size and authenticity. This release reflects Faile’s ongoing exploration of skate culture as both a functional medium and an art collectible.
Collage Aesthetics and Narrative Imagery in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork
The deck features a striking central image of intertwined figures rendered in Faile’s signature graphic style, combining comic book illustration, vintage advertising tones, and layered street textures. Bright pink, blue, and yellow elements collide with typographic fragments and urban collage motifs, creating a visually dense environment around the figures. The composition evokes romance, rebellion, and dreamlike symbolism, themes that frequently appear in Faile’s work. Within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, the use of collage and appropriation transforms familiar imagery into layered narratives that blur the boundaries between pop culture, street posters, and fine art.
Skate Culture as Canvas in Contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork
Skateboard decks have long served as alternative canvases for artists rooted in graffiti and street culture, merging performance objects with collectible artwork. Printed as a limited silkscreen edition on durable maple wood, the Subrosa Deck maintains the structural integrity of a skate deck while functioning as a display piece. The signed certificate of authenticity adds further collector value and reinforces the deck’s place within curated street art editions. Through this format, Faile continues to demonstrate how Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork extends beyond traditional paper prints into sculptural and cultural objects tied directly to urban youth culture.
