Athens Digital week 2009 – Character synthesis exhibition update!

Character synthesis exhibition was fun! We managed to take some pictures, but I must admit I need to practice more with our camera. Really. I must learn what all those buttons do.

These are my characters :)

Design Warriors exhibition

I've been invited by The Butter factory, a club space in Singapore, to take part in the Design warriors project, an exhibition of contemporary characters and art, curated by Phunk studio and the Butter Factory. They especially loved to have Fifico the rocking Oriole with them and if you look closely, you can see him partying in some pictures of the opening party :)

I managed to find him here:

United Nations of Cupco

Luke Temby-Cupco is one of my favorite artists and plush makers! His characters are really unique, funny and evil of course! One day the great Cupco invited 100 of his favorite artists and friends to decorate the Cupco doll template for the United Nations of Cupco show which will be held at the Damien Minton gallery in Sydney in Mid-2008. I was very excited to take part to the United Nations of Cupco project and customise a Cupco doll, giving the unique Yupyland flavour to it :D
So, this is my Cupcodoll, it is leather fabric and I've used acrylics to paint on it. The theme is based on an upcoming super secret very personal and very time-consuming project. But a very fun one! And a very very very! much loved one :)



Visit the United Nations of Cupco website to see the dolls created by some of my favorite artists, including Diego Medina, Tado, Jeremyville, Furi Furi and many many more!

Speakerdog greatest hits

Café Pause at Tokyo hosted a cool show, exhibiting a selection of the famous Speakerdog paper toys! The exhibition was on from 7th to 20th of April and my Speakerdog toy was lucky enough to travel to Tokyo and take part to this exhibition. Take a look at some pictures from the show:

This nerdy girl is my Speakerdog paper toy:
