Gauntlet Gallery — Kai & Sunny Print Index
Wild Obey
Summary
Wild Obey is a 2024 collaboration between Kai & Sunny and Shepard Fairey, a limited edition of 200 at 34 x 25.5 inches. Merging the duo's flowing pattern language with Fairey's iconic OBEY visual identity, it is one of the more widely available works in the Wild collaborative series.
Why It Matters
The Fairey collaboration bridges two distinct print worlds—Kai & Sunny's abstract nature imagery and OBEY's graphic, propaganda-inflected iconography. Cross-artist editions like this draw collectors from both fan bases, and the OBEY association gives the work reach well beyond the duo's usual audience.
Collector Perspective
At an edition of 200, Wild Obey is the most accessible piece in this grouping, making it a common entry point for collectors of either artist. Because collaborative prints attract two markets, verify the presence of both signatures and confirm edition details. The listed release price was 350 USD; treat that as issue price, not current value.
Historical Context
Wild Obey sits within Kai & Sunny's 2024 Wild series and continues a pattern of high-profile collaborations for the London duo, who have also worked with D*Face. Shepard Fairey's OBEY GIANT project, born from his Andre the Giant sticker campaign, is among the most recognisable in contemporary street art.

About the Artist
Kai & Sunny are a London-based artistic duo, Kai Clements and Sunny Todd, who met at art college and have collaborated since the late 1990s. They are known for intricate, hand-drawn line work exploring nature, patterns, and the forces of the natural world, often rendered as flowing, wind-swept compositions. Beyond fine-art prints and installations, they have built a notable design career, including celebrated collaborations with author Ben Okri and cover artwork for Penguin's editions of J.G. Ballard. Their editions are published in tightly controlled runs and have been exhibited internationally.
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.
