Following their acclaimed exhibition The Natural History Museum of Yeahnahnesia, dynamic artistic duo Yok & Sheryo return to Cultprint with their latest print release: Artefacts of Significance: Found scroll “Fertility Deities of the Matriarch”
Known for striking visuals that transcend mediums, the artists draw inspiration from mysterious found scrolls on the island of Yeahnahnesia. The serpent and tiger represent two of the island’s guardian lineages, standing watch over a matriarch instead of a temple door- embodying the idea that fertility can be both soft and fierce at once. The central figure is armed and beaded in equal measure, leaving us wondering who’s really protecting who.
This latest release blends their signature wit with ancient iconography, resulting in a striking piece that balances unexpected humor with profound cultural storytelling.
The print edition comes in two variants, the main edition of 60 and a hand-finished variant edition of 6.
