Rebel Unlit

Rebel Unlit is a Berlin-based screen printing and design studio founded by artists Neil Butler and Shanney Mulcahy. Working at the intersection of fine art and design, the studio creates limited edition serigraphs, art prints, and wearable artworks such as silk scarves and custom textiles.

Alongside our studio editions, Rebel Unlit collaborates with cultural institutions, musicians, and independent brands to create bespoke screen-printed objects.

Our work has been exhibited in museums and art spaces across Europe, including the Serigraphie-Museum Filderstadt exhibition Die Quadratur des Siebdrucks, shown alongside works by original Bauhaus members.
