About the artwork
“Singapore” by Daze aka CHRIS DAZE ELLIS (us) is documented as Archival pigment print on 300g Moab Entrada paper,signed and numbered by hand. Embossed with the gallery's seal.. It measures 66 × 61 cm. A close-up female face fills the square image. One eye,the nose and red lips are rendered with photographic precision,while the right side is overlaid with yellow,green and orange paint,drips,circles and small graphic signs. White margins surround the printed image. The description follows the supplied main image and is limited to elements that are visible at that scale; it does not assume the presence of reverse inscriptions,labels,certificates or other details unless these are separately recorded in the documentation.
The supplied note records a hand signature or signed component. The catalogue records the work as dating from 2012. The edition information supplied is: édition de 40 signée et numérotée. The support and technique are particularly important to the object’s reading. Printed areas,marker lines,aerosol passages,collage elements,paint layers,cut edges or three-dimensional components remain visually distinct and allow the construction of the image to be understood. Where the record mentions hand-finishing,signing,numbering or an artist’s proof,these elements should be checked against the corresponding detail photographs during final physical cataloguing. Condition comments are restricted to the supplied note and visible evidence; normal variations associated with handmade,recycled or previously used supports should not automatically be described as damage without direct examination.
Expert opinion
From a cataloguing perspective,“Singapore” occupies a position within Printmaking and Urban Art. The work’s relevance lies primarily in the relationship between its recorded date,2012,its medium—Archival pigment print on 300g Moab Entrada paper,signed and numbered by hand. Embossed with the gallery's seal.—and the degree of manual intervention visible in the object. The market category should not be determined by the artist’s name alone: the support,edition structure,signature,date,provenance and condition all materially affect how the work should be compared with other examples.
The recorded edition information—édition de 40 signée et numérotée—is central to classification. Numbering,signature,proof status and any hand-finished variations should be verified together,because these details distinguish the present example from the standard edition. A certificate of authenticity is mentioned in the supplied documentation and should remain associated with the work. Any condition assessment should consider the particular support,including deckled paper,recycled cardboard,used currency,vinyl,skateboard wood or unstretched canvas,since these materials may carry intentional or inherent surface characteristics. For an informed assessment,the image should be examined alongside close views of the signature,numbering,reverse inscriptions,publisher or gallery marks and any certificate. The available material is sufficient for a cautious catalogue positioning,but it does not provide verified auction comparisons,institutional exhibition history or market-performance data. No estimate,investment conclusion or claim of rarity is therefore made. The work is best evaluated as a documented object within its specific medium and production context,with emphasis on authenticity,completeness and physical condition.
