Tony Dennis aka Tape Deck Art is a self-taught British contemporary artist with a passion for music and design. He is known for giant 3D versions of vintage pin badges designed to celebrate iconic bands.
Tape Deck first came up with the idea for his 3D badges back in 2016. When he found himself called to create an artwork that was eye-catching, tactile and totally different, he looked to his collection of vintage punk badges from the 1970sand decided to merge the two. After nearly 9 months of research and countless prototypes, Tony painted his first badge in early 2017 and now sells them in galleries around the world.
Tape Deck has enjoyed several high-profile collaborations with the likes of French graffiti artist, Invader, the Hard Rock Hotel chain, and The Prodigy. His works are in the private art collections of Noel Gallagher, Jean Paul Gaultier, Paddy Considine and Taron Egerton.
