‘Mais Amor Por Favor’ translates from Portuguese as More Love Please — a direct, uncomplicated request rendered as a colour blend on off-white paper. Donk’s work regularly makes simple, human statements in this way: the message unironic, the execution careful.
The colour blend technique gives this piece a softness and gradation that his more graphic, high-contrast paste-up work doesn’t always have. It’s one of his quieter pieces, though the request it makes is anything but modest. Limited edition, signed.
