Wild Migration (First Edition)
Summary
Wild Migration is a 2024 five-colour hand-pulled screen print on 410gsm Somerset radiant white cotton, at a large 85 x 120 cm. Signed in an edition of 50, it is a major-scale release from the studio's Wild grouping, building a sweeping, movement-driven composition across five ink layers.
Why It Matters
At 85 x 120 cm this is one of the largest formats Kai & Sunny release, and an edition of 50 at that scale is comparatively scarce. The migration theme—flocking, directional movement—translates naturally into the duo's flowing linework, making this a signature statement piece within their nature-driven output.
Collector Perspective
Large scale plus an edition of 50 positions Wild Migration as a scarce, high-impact acquisition. The dimensions demand careful framing and wall space, and flat storage of the 410gsm sheet is essential. The signed authentication and hand-deckled tradition of the studio's large prints support its standing as a premium edition.
Historical Context
Wild Migration anchors the studio's 2024 Wild series, which also produced collaborative works with Shepard Fairey and D*Face. The migration motif extends Kai & Sunny's ornithological and nature interests—birds and movement being recurring subjects across their long body of environmentally themed work.

Collecting Kai & Sunny at Gauntlet Gallery
What Kai & Sunny works should I collect?
Their signed, numbered silkscreen editions, often featuring metallic inks, blind embossing, and hand-finished detail, are the heart of the market. Foil and layered prints in small runs are especially collectible. Gauntlet Gallery selects pieces in pristine condition with crisp embossing and complete signing.
How is authenticity handled?
Kai & Sunny editions are offered with documented studio provenance and the duo's signature and numbering. We photograph the specific piece you will receive, including signature, edition number, and any embossing, so every detail is verifiable before you buy.
What drives value?
Small edition sizes, special finishes (foil, embossing, hand-work), condition, and provenance from a documented release drive value. Sold-out, low-numbered, and specially finished editions command the strongest premiums.
