Trevor Andrew aka Gucci Ghost (b. 1979; Nova Scotia, Canada). Based in Brooklyn, N.Y 2003- 2018. Currently living in Los Angeles, California. He is a multi-disciplinary artist that is internationally known for his raw DIY aesthetic and pop art sensibility. His visual language is rooted in punk and skate culture of the 1990’s that has adapted for our current state of media saturation. Andrew’s work critiques and explores contemporary socio-economic structures, specifically analyzing popular consumerism. He brings to the foreground questions regarding “real” vs. it’s perception: as luxury. Back in 2016, Andrew made his proverbial mark when he was enlisted - after brazenly declaring, sue me or hire me -- to concoct his very own capsule collection with GUCCI based on his earlier outlaw street perversions of the iconic brand. To this day, GUCCI continues drawing from Andrew's re-imaginings.
