As we promised you a few weeks back, FAILE has unveiled their newest creation with Mongolian Sculptor, Bat Munkh. Entitled Wolf Within, the 5 meter fiberglass and steel creation was unveiled October 12th at National Garden Park, a new 1650 acre project in the heart of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. This piece was created in conjunction with the global Tiger Translate initiative that aims to uncover the best emerging creative talents across Asia and provide them with opportunities to collaborate with their more established Western counterparts.
While in Mongolia for the unveiling, the Patricks also worked with a variety of local Mongolian artists on a loose mural project. The duplicated stencil of a young girl clutching a skateboard, a nod to the quickly modernizing nature of Mongolia culture among its vastly unpaved landscape was placed on the wall of an archway located in the central university district of Ulan Bator. Each Mongolian artist worked on customizing the girl’s dress in their own style. Check the rest of the photos below…
