Ryan Hawaii is a multidisciplinary artist from Catford, South East London, known for his work in fashion, visual art, and music. His work is defined by bold, hand-painted designs that blend punk aesthetics with personal and spiritual narratives.
For Ryan, garments are not simply fashion items but wearable artworks, with the wearer completing the piece by bringing it into the world. His cross-disciplinary approach continues to push boundaries, staying true to his DIY ethos that connects with a broad and diverse community.
This spirit made a collaboration with OBEY a natural fit. Ryan will present a solo exhibition at the OBEY Art Space in Amsterdam, where he will showcase both fine art and one-of-a-kind OBEY pieces, including exclusive screen-printed tees available only at the Amsterdam flagship store. Through this body of work, Ryan explores spirituality by transforming complex ideas into simple, universal symbols. These symbols, alongside āEyeman,ā a recurring character central to his practice, run throughout the collection, embodying his ongoing search for meaning and connection.
Exhibition: Oct 10 ā Oct 31
Opening event: Oct 10 6 ā 10 pm
OBEY Art Space Amsterdam
Runstraat 25, Amsterdam

Another week broadcasting, another resident spotlight. Go listen back to @ryanhawaii recent show! Catford born & raised artist, designer & musician.
Much love to everyone listening in, we back live on tuesday with @djcosmicbob weekly breakfast show from 9am!
Often Iāll carry a pen with me when out on the streets, thereās something special about the immediacy of the mark making, the opportunism, scouting for canvases as I walk.
The rush of being caught and the vigilance that comes with that. But also the transitory nature of the works themselves. Sometimes I come back the next day and theyāre gone, sometimes they last months or even years.
Tagging keeps the sword sharp and has been a mainstay of my practice since the beginning, challenging myself to invent new symbols on the spot. How many of you have found a Hawaii Lime bike in the wild and driven it around?
