The name Andy Hope 1930 acts more as a label rather a name a gateway that allows the artists to travel in different directions freely. The name Andy Hope is a blending of Andy Warhol and Dorian Hope, while 1930 represents an exciting year with a new form of illustration through comic books and the introduction of super heroes. This choice in name intentionally represents Andy Hopes entire body of work: stylistic clashes, distinct yet interwoven times and worlds, and plays on identities. The artists persona, much like his art, remains an enigma that plays along the outer border of his audiences conception of reality.
