James Jean's new limited edition print retells ancient myth in a story of renewal.

Inspired by the Māori creation story, in which life emerges in the void created by the physical separation of Sky Father and Earth Mother, this piece borrows fragments of the story to cast some of Jean’s recurring characters in a world of mythology, nature and material transformation. The artist’s signature blending of graphic and highly rendered elements “creates a visual rhythm” which Jean uses to allow “different layers of reality to coexist” within the artwork. The print is signed by the artist and features silver foil blocking and silkscreen spot gloss varnish. It is released alongside a ceramic sculpture titled Blossom Vessel which explores overlapping themes, with lower and matching edition numbers for those collecting both pieces.

James Jean22 collaborationsTaiwanese-American artist James Jean makes contemporary pop art that has captured the imagination of the art world and popular culture. His colossal internet following is a testament to his instantly recognisable style, which mixes a comic and manga sensibility with the detailed prowess of Renaissance painting and traditional Japanese wood carving. In his early career in the 2000s, James worked as a cover artist for the historic publisher DC Comics. During his time there, he became renowned in the industry and won numerous awards. Decades later, James is an internationally acclaimed artist famous for his painting, drawing, and digital artworks, as well as his sculptures and installations.
