BE@RBRICK Flying Balloons Girl 1000%

BE@RBRICK Flying Balloons Girl 1000% is a MEDICOM TOY collectible issued through BRANDALISM, using the Flying Balloons Girl motif associated with Banksy. Black silhouettes of a girl and balloons repeat across the pale body, continuing over the rounded ears, arms, back and legs.

The image of a girl lifted by balloons can be read as a suggestion of freedom, hope or escape. On this object it becomes a repeated graphic composition: different sides reveal new combinations of the figure and balloons. A limited palette keeps attention on the contrast between the flat silhouettes and the curved surface.

The manufacturer identifies the release as BRANDALISM Flying Balloons Girl and credits Full Colour Black Ltd. This does not establish a direct collaboration with, or approval by, Banksy. The object is a MEDICOM TOY collectible carrying a reproduced motif, rather than an original Banksy mural, artist’s print or sculpture.

The gallery includes front, three-quarter and rear views as well as the box. Its packaging allows the printed motif to be compared with the pattern on the body. The 1000% designation refers to the BE@RBRICK format and does not state the production quantity.
