Disco is Yellow (damaged)

Disco is Yellow (damaged) is a bold, joyful, unapologetically loud screenprint that fills the room before it even hits the wall. This is the damaged version of the print, offered at a reduced price for collectors who know that a little imperfection never killed a good piece of art.

The Print

Stacked high in oversized retro lettering, the words Disco Is The Perfect Love Affair scream out from a burning yellow ground. It is warm, it is electric, it pulls you straight back to the era of glitter balls and wide lapels. The composition fills the picture plane completely, edge to edge energy, nothing wasted, nothing quiet.

This is a 3 layer screenprint measuring 495x495mm, finished with a blue hot foil layer that runs across the letterforms and catches the light with every shift in angle. That foil is what makes this print sing. In certain light it is a deep teal. In others it blazes a sharp, almost electric blue. The halftone dot shadow work beneath the letters gives the whole thing incredible depth, a tactile quality that you simply cannot replicate with a digital print or a poster.

The print is hand signed.

About the Damage

There is a slight scratch over the hot foil. Up close you can find it if you look for it. At a distance, and honestly even fairly close up, it disappears entirely. The yellow still pops. The foil still dazzles. The print still does exactly what it is supposed to do. Please check the photos carefully before purchasing so you know exactly what you are getting. This is a genuinely minor flaw on an otherwise stunning piece, and it is the reason this one is available at a reduced price rather than being held back for a standard sale.

If you want perfect, you want the standard edition. If you want this exact print at a better price and you are comfortable with the scratch, this is a seriously good opportunity.

Postage and Packaging

Postage and packaging is included in the price. The print will be carefully packed and sent out to you in protective packaging so it arrives safely.

Why This Print Works

There is something about a yellow ground that just commands a wall. It does not sit there quietly asking to be noticed. It is the room. Pair the yellow with that shimmering blue foil and the result is something genuinely special, a print that shifts and changes depending on where you are standing and how the light is hitting it. The retro typography grounds it in something cultural and nostalgic without ever feeling like pastiche. This is a proper, considered piece of graphic design executed through a craft process that takes real skill to pull off well.

Who is this print for? Collectors who understand that hand-pulled means unrepeatable. Once it's gone, it's gone. Own a piece of British screenprint craft.
