ARTIST
British street artist Stik began painting his iconic stick figures on the streets of east London in the early 2000’s, whilst living in homeless shelters and social housing. His designs are as simple as they are striking; albeit minimal in design each work is incredibly emotive with love and the community is always core in his work.
‘Red Dancer’ was produced exclusively for the 2011 Q Awards in London and was not offered for general release. The prints were presented to special guests of the ceremony and are owned by artists including Ed Sheeran, Adele, Brian May, Bono, Liam Gallagher, Elton John, Tinie Tempah and many more.
As the prints were distributed at the event in narrow cardboard tubes, many were badly damaged and creased by recipients taking them in and out of the tubes during the event. It is unknown how many impressions from the edition survived.
