In creating this print, Mr. Brainwash has employed his signature style, which often includes vibrant hues splashed with a deliberate spontaneity akin to how Marley's music flows with natural rhythm and poignant lyrics. The hand-pulled silkscreen technique employed by Guetta ensures that each piece of this limited series bears the individuality and imperfections that are the hallmarks of human creativity.
