W4’s exclusive graphic art pieces depict motorcycles, guitars, skulls and shoes comprised from the artists’ rare collection of signature design elements.
W4’s work is created with his unique amassment of thousands of rock concert ticket stubs, backstage passes and VIP laminates; capturing a million magical moments from his days as a music journalist traveling the world and later as a television personality. “These artifacts reflect thousands of unique musical events that collectively trace the arc of my personal and professional life”, explained W4.
With the idea of preserving and sharing these moments with his friends, W4 decided to integrate them into a series of graphic art pieces reflecting his own unique and personal style. The works quickly developed a collector and fan base igniting global exhibitions in cities like New York, Paris and more. Each of the artist’s creations is printed as a series of 8, every piece is signed and incorporates W4’s treasured concert tickets, backstage passes, hidden hippos, various symbols and a phrase in Hindi.

The exhibition Life opened softly at Facchini Gallery on Friday, November 6th.
