Launched in 2020, Big Island Grown’s Cultivating Art Series is an ongoing collaboration with artists from Hawaii and around the world to highlight some of our new and favorite cannabis cultivars.
Partnering artists are asked to create an interpretation of B.I.G. cultivars in their own style. For each strain, we print 80 high quality, 17″x22″ art prints; 60 go to the first people who purchase the showcased flower from one of the three Big Island dispensaries on drop days. 10 go to the artist and 10 go to the BIG team and archive. These limited prints have become highly collectible with very few, if anyone, having all of them.

Cannabis has long been known to influence artists of all mediums but science has recently proven that the plant’s stimulating effects on the brain’s frontal lobe (a part of the brain highly active in creative people) could be the root of this influence. As we continue to learn more about this powerful plant, we can dial in the benefits of specific cannabinoids, terpenes and dosages that meet our desired outcome whether it is increased creativity or pain relief.
