This is the Big City Baby
Created in collaboration with Allison Mosshart (lead singer of The Kills), this spooky, magical cityscape is a signed silkscreen print from artist Dan Baldwin, available in a limited edition of 100.
'Alison Mosshart, lead singer of the band The Kills, wrote a piece called 'THIS IS THE BIG CITY BABY' when sitting with Jack White from the White Stripes. They had been sitting in New York by the wishing well fountain, and the events of that day prompted the written piece. It was then given to a project SFWAM (Songs For Words and Music) which is a charity-based literacy project with Jeff Antebi of Waxspolitation records, pairing artists with musicians - Tom Waites, Nick Cave and many more. Alison had been hanging on for several years waiting for the right artist to illustrate her piece, my image was inspired by her writing - the cats and freaks come out at night whilst the city sleeps, as the clock strikes 12am some magic occurs. It's quite a specific illustrative piece as it was a specific image for a project.' - Dan Baldwin.
