Vhils (1987) - Mint 1

Original and rare hand-finished screenprint by Alexander Farto (VHILS), Portuguese artist (b. 1987). Hand-finished Screenprint (Exclusive Limited Edition), 2022. Screenprint on fine art paper, individually hand-finished by the artist using mixed media including quink ink, bleach and acid. Each print features unique hand-applied interventions, resulting in subtle variations and making every example a one-of-a-kind variant within the edition. Very rare, special exclusive release produced for a closed private collector community. Not commercially distributed through standard gallery channels. Limited edition of 110. Hand-signed in pencil by the artist. Hand-numbered in pencil. Dimensions: 70 × 50 cm. Provenance: directly from the artist’s studio. Documentation: original studio packaging - tube. Condition: Excellent. No tears, creases, foxing, stains, discoloration, or handling marks. Never framed. Carefully stored in tube. Contextual note: This edition reflects VHILS’ practice of combining traditional printmaking with aggressive surface intervention, echoing his signature language of erosion, decay and material excavation. The combination of screenprint and direct chemical and ink manipulation creates a highly tactile, expressive surface rarely encountered in conventional editions.
