This is the official artwork for the 2023 Glastonbury Festival, by me, Stanley Donwood, and it's called 'Higher Than The Sun'. The title came later than the picture, but it kind of fits, don't you reckon?
Should you be interested, it's made with the following processes and ingredients; dispersal dyes, linoleum, scalpels, computers, photography, dancing, pencils, chisels, and frequent visits to our local cafe, which has a stained glass window in the door and is where the inspiration for our stained glass border came from.
This picture was made in collaboration with my daughters, who you can just about see dancing on the top of Glastonbury Tor.
A limited edition of 250 hand-pulled screen prints with a spot varnish. Each print is composed of 12 layers of colour.
Printed on St Cuthberts Mill Somerset satin 410gsm: this paper is made 6 miles from the festival.
Print size 580mm x 815mm.
Paper size 700mm x 950mm.
The edition will be numbered and signed by Stanley Donwood, and then blind-embossed with the Slowly Downward Manufactory seal.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PRINT WILL NOT BE SHIPPED UNTIL AFTER THE FESTIVAL.
