HK doesn’t load Photoshop with much concern for granular hex codes or rigid client specs. The Florida-born, LA-based gut-truster has inspired a generation by coloring outside the lines and questioning everything. Since earning lifelong fandom for the album artwork remakes he once posted in rap forums a decade ago, Sileshi went on to help shape the visual identities of household names in music.

His knack for sensing magic in unassuming places manifests in his work with le PÈRE. Featuring an oversized heart graphic that alludes to a novelty tourist gift, the Versailles Hearts Sweatshirt and Sweatshorts embody Sileshi’s affinity for one-of-one witticisms, turning a lover’s postcard into a hoodie. The stamp-like, sublimated print stretches across the chest and arms as well as across the front of the shorts in the artist’s signature airbrushed typographic aesthetic.
