Work Summary & Collector Notes

Just An Illusion 3 is a 2013 Kai & Sunny hand-pulled four-colour screen print in black, pink, blue and white glitter, on 100% cotton Somerset tub-sized satin 420 gsm. At an unframed 102.5 x 152.4 cm (framed 120 x 170 cm) and an edition of just 5, it is a large-scale, ultra-limited statement work.

Collector notes: The saved release record describes: Edition of 5. Edition-specific signature, numbering, and stamp details were not stated in the saved release record. Verify signing and numbering against a documented example of this edition.

Why It Matters

The combination of monumental scale, a four-colour build including white glitter, and an edition of only 5 makes this one of the most ambitious pieces in the Just An Illusion series. The heavy 420 gsm Somerset stock and large format elevate it from a standard edition to a centerpiece-scale work.

Collector Perspective

An edition of 5 at over a meter and a half tall places this among Kai & Sunny's rarest and most impactful prints. Its scale demands significant wall space and careful handling, and the glitter passages should be inspected for condition. Collectors should verify the four-colour registration and edition number given the tiny run.

Historical Context

The Just An Illusion series explores optical effect and reflective media throughout Kai & Sunny's output. This 2013 third iteration pushes the concept to large-scale format, using glitter and layered colour on heavyweight Somerset satin to intensify the perceptual play the series is known for.
