Illari's passion extends beyond the gallery's walls through Saint Jealous, the social impact art of the gallery and Jealous Print Studio, including our new 'Deck The Walls' collection with Big Issue. The project sees us working with Jealous artists including Chris Levine, Corbin Shaw, Joe Webb and Alma Singer on prints with 50% of the profits from each sales supporting Big Issue’s work to end poverty in the UK.
As for the future of Jealous? Says Illari, "More interesting work, more prints that make people jealous. Hopefully, we can do good along the way."
