ABOUT THE ART

This powerful screen-print echoes the unforgettable imagery of Banksy’s inflatable dinghy at "Glastonbury 2024". A crowded migrant boat, rendered in stark black and white, is held aloft by a mass of upraised festival arms, transforming the familiar ritual of crowdsurfing into a haunting symbol of displacement and shared responsibility. The only colour in the composition, vivid orange lifejackets, draws urgent attention to the plight of those at sea. Visually bold and politically charged, the print fuses protest, performance, and festival culture into a striking moment where art and activism collide.

Produced in the United Kingdom in 2025, this exclusive piece is a must-have for fans of Banksy and street art, capturing the essence of the Glastonbury festival and its surroundings with a touch of irony and creativity.

The artwork shows a group of migrants in a boat being carried across a sea of outstretched hands. As the headline band played on the stage, an inflatable vessel, filled with mannequin figures wearing lifejackets, was hoisted above the audience by thousands of festival-goers.

A new print quietly made its debut at one of the print shop stalls at "Glastonbury 2025".  Interestingly, design #9 wasn’t spotted on the wall initially, but later surfaced with a strict “1 poster per customer” rule attached.

The buzz built fast. As word spread and eager festival-goers rushed to snap one up, demand quickly outpaced supply. By the afternoon, a handwritten sign reading "REPRINTING COME BACK TOMORROW" was taped over the display, only adding to the mystery (and the hype).

By the festival’s final day, Banksy's latest print was sold out.

ARTIST BIO

Perhaps the most famous figure in street art working today, Banksy is known for urban interventions that demonstrate irreverent wit and a biting political edge. Enhancing his mystique by maintaining an anonymous identity, the artist has modified street signs, illegally printed his own currency, and illicitly hung his own work in the Louvre and the Museum of Modern Art.

He often uses spray paint and stencils in his critiques of consumerism, political authority, terrorism, and the status of art and its display. His street art, installations, and studio-produced works have been shown in Los Angeles, New York, London, Bethlehem, and beyond. His art has been subject to widespread interest on the secondary market and has fetched eight figures at auction.
