Jamie Hewlett – Gorillaz – Stained Glass Window Print – Medium Window Right (2005)

Artwork by Jamie Hewlett

A rare, 20-year-old example of Jamie Hewlett’s early Gorillaz work, published by the now-defunct Pictures on Walls, founded by Banksy and Jamie Hewlett.

Published in conjunction with the release of Gorillaz second album, Demon Days, in May 2005, these stained glass pieces utilised advanced print techniques that were innovative for their era.

POW description: ‘A beautiful piece of work. Made around the time of Gorillaz ‘Demon Days’ album – arguably still one of the 21st Century’s most coherent masterpieces.‘

Strictly limited in its worldwide release, each piece is lithographically printed with silkscreen finishing on heavyweight cotton fibre rag paper. The printing technique creates a raised, textured effect that mimics the leadwork of stained glass.

Each piece is hand numbered with a matching edition number, accompanied by the Pictures on Walls blind stamp.
