We were so enamored with Ilya Kuvshinov's Pearl illustration -- originally created in 2020 -- that it never left our minds and was something we always thought would look great on a holofoil stock. This project came together rather quickly as we wanted to try out Ultra Violet printing on holofoil and it just so happened Ilya was going to visit Los Angeles in October 2023 for his solo show at Gallery Nucleus. Since Ilya would be in town it'd be much better to get the proofing done in person with him & we can get the edition hand-signed as well.
Due to the the short-time period between proofing and production and Ilya's short stay in Los Angeles, we were only able to product about 40 copies in time to get signed. So our apologies to everyone that missed out. The next holofoil release with Ilya will be much easier to get. Please stay tuned to our social channels & newsletter for the announcement!
