As iconic today as he was in his first appearance in 'Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back' (1980), Yoda is known for his unusual alien form, deceptively feeble appearance, and funny way of talking. It is these characteristics and more that make him unforgettable in the artist's opinion and he notes that the character of Yoda reminds him of "good times sitting too close to the television".

Perfectly capturing the character's silhouette and aura whilst remaining obscured, this simple yet impactful artwork by Whatshisname reflects his aim of conveying "our childhood heroes [reaching] out to us with an extended hand and saying, 'Hello, I’m still here, do you remember me?' or if those are fading memories, they are saying goodbye.

March 2023 saw Whatshisname take his artwork to new heights as we launched his first exhibition into space! The interactive exhibition featured a selection of new and acclaimed pieces that celebrate the breadth of the boundary pushing artist - including this artwork!

Mounted in a bespoke charcoal pine and spruce frame, this elegant and touching piece is the perfect way to add a sophisticated touch of cinematic history to your home. Discover more about the mysteriously named artist  or alternatively shop his full portfolio.
