uniloo-loo 2, 'Soda vs. Pop' show - Rocket World Gallery


image by Rocket World Gallery

The creative & adventurous Patrick Ma, celebrated the opening of his fantastic (and huge) shop space/gallery, with the art opening Pop vs. Soda -- a collection of 2d & 3d works by various illustrators, artists and craft creators moving in the current cute-pop-culture.

I was asked to contribute a piece, and created the second generation of unilooloos -- unilooloo 2. This piece is on a similar plane as unilooloo 1, but made with a tighter grip. The louder, cheeky version of the unilooloo series, thus far. This piece can be unraveled and arranged in various configurations. Bunch it as a bouquet shown here, or wrap it across your chest like a strap of bullets (well -- soft, googly-eyed bullets).

unilooloo 2 is made of mostly recycled materials: calico, chintz, twills, vintage linen & cotton prints, felt tongues, illustrated eye detail and readymade googly-eyes. They wear handmade pompons and satin ribbon; and are lovingly constructed with a wink and a pinch.

>> available to purchase at Rocket World Gallery - $65.00.

Thanks girls! Yes, it was a nice opening. Patrick's store/gallery space is so rad. It's a large, converted warehouse he outfitted cleverly.

Speaking of LA... Plushtastrophe's last US show is at BLK/MRKT Gallery around your neck of the woods, Lili. The show opens Sept 10th, and I'm trying to plan a trip there with some of the SF plush artists. I'll let you know for sure. Hope you all are well! xxoo
