ABOUT THIS DESING:

"

The OG Fuchs is still one of my favourite ideas I’ve designed.

A fox that keeps its German name, Fuchs, mainly because of its assonance with fucks and because that sound somehow carries the whole spirit of the character.

The design belongs to SAVE YOUR SOUL AKA anima_L, a way of drawing animals that started almost accidentally when I was at university in Florence.

During lessons, or on those unbearably hot Florentine days when boredom took over, my lover and I started playing a game: one of us would draw an animal and the other had to guess what animal it was.

There was only one real rule:

it had to be as ugly as possible.

That game slowly became its own visual language.

And from all those strange animals came the OG Fuchs.

It is also one of the very few designs that I willingly repeat again and again, even keeping the same original design.

Normally repetition is something I try to avoid.

But FOR FUCHS is different.

Every new one is another member.

That’s me trying to create a Fuchs Army

TECHINCAL DETAILS:

COMPOUND DP

A print edition that changes while it is being collected.

Each design exists as a limited edition of only 10 prints, available across six formats, from A6 to A1.

Every edition begins with a predetermined starting price. After each copy is sold, the price of the next available copy doubles.

The idea is simple: the earlier you believe in the work, the earlier you enter the edition.

But COMPOUND DP is not only about scarcity or price.

The prints begin relatively simple, close to the original digital artwork. As the edition progresses and the price increases, I manually intervene on each new piece, adding details, marks, textures and elements directly to the print.

The artwork slowly develops a new skin.

This means that differences can appear not only between A6, A5, A4, A3, A2 and A1, but also between the first, second, third and later copies sold.

Every stage of the edition becomes its own variation.

Once all 10 copies of the design are gone, the edition is closed and the design will never be printed again as a COMPOUND DP edition.

Worldwide shipping is available.

BERLIN: delivery costs can disappear entirely. If you live in Berlin, whenever possible your print will be delivered directly to you for free.

The first collector gets the beginning of the story.

The last collector gets its most transformed version.

Everything in between records how the artwork grew.
