Urban Art Drops
WiSiVerse art doesn’t just live on canvases or products: it steps into the streets, blends with the city, and waits to be discovered by chance. Urban Drops are original works left in public spaces — unexpected gifts for whoever finds them. A free gesture that carries Whiskey and his universe beyond the studio walls, into everyday life.
In Istanbul, Osman Hamdi Bey’s Naile Hanım was reimagined as WHISKEY SULTAN.
Painted by hand and carried through the city, the piece wandered across Istanbul for a day before being left in Sultanahmet, where evening walks, history and coincidence quietly meet.
It was first found by a group of girls, who took a photo with it and then left it for the city to decide what came next.
Later, Mehmet and Onur discovered it during one of their usual night walks through Sultanahmet, a ritual they had built to relax and reconnect with the city.
They carried the painting with them, photographed it, and finally chose to keep it.
Now WHISKEY SULTAN lives in their office, placed in front of a painting of Istanbul, so it can always keep the city in sight.
A portrait left in the street became the symbol of a walk, a friendship, and a small ritual that already belonged to the city.
In London, Frank Auerbach's Head of Catherine Lampert was reimagined as Head of Whiskey Lampert.
Painted by hand and left to wander the city streets, the piece became a small dialogue between London's artistic legacy and the WiSiVerse.
For a brief moment, a portrait inspired by one of the city's most celebrated painters existed not behind glass, but among strangers, traffic, conversations, and chance encounters.
In Paris, one of Cézanne’s most iconic works, Boy with a Red Vest, was reimagined through the figure of Whiskey with the Red Vest. Two paintings were created and left on the streets, among passersby and the city’s restless rhythm.
It became a way to spark a dialogue with the art that once inhabited those places, while giving new life to an icon — taking it out of museums and placing it into the living, breathing city. Whoever found them, discovered an unexpected fragment of the WiSiVerse.
In Cagliari, a special piece was created to honor the figure of Sant’Efisio, a symbol deeply rooted in the city’s history and devotion. The painting reimagined the saint through Whiskey, blending sacred tradition with the irreverent spirit of the WiSiVerse.
It was placed in a public square, tied to a palm tree, as both an offering and an encounter. A gesture that connected the streets of Cagliari with its centuries-old celebration, leaving behind not just a painting, but a fragment of the city’s living memory.
