Curatorial Essay

Purple Stage

A wide cinematic stage glows in violet as Prince stands alone beneath crossing spotlights. The scale of the empty performance space heightens the intimacy and self-possession of the central manga figure.

Created by Hiren Kothari and Maria Sokolyanskaya, whose long-running collaboration began after the Russian jewellery designer met Kothari in London. Their shared practice brings together art, fashion and design through the expressive visual language of manga.

From Prince: The Manga Series. Museum-quality archival fine-art print, 75 × 50 cm, issued in a numbered edition of 10 and accompanied by a Gallery Privé Certificate of Authenticity. Print produced by GicleePod using Lucia Pro II pigment ink.
