I will be showing some pieces at model citizen nyc this Design Week. A bunch of new lamps, Monster Mirrors, Finn’s Army, Mobile Homes, and Rubber Origami Mobiles. There will also be a general store and a ton of great work to buy. I’m very excited to be showing among so many great designers and artists. If you are in the city, please come on by.

Take a look at some of the pics taken last night at the Cameron Art Museum. It looks like it was a great event, I wish I could’ve been there.

I have some very exciting news, I have two pieces in a show that is in a real live museum. Finn’s Army and Making Faces both got into the Toying with Art show at the Cameron Art Museum. The museum is in Wilmington, NC, and runs from November 13th to March 28.

Toying with Art is an exhibition of toys designed and fabricated by artists. More than 50 artists from around the country have created toys in a wide variety of sizes, themes and styles for this exhibition. Running through the holidays, Toying with Art is sure to be fun for kids of all ages.

There are some incredible artists involved and I am very flattered and humbled to be included.

Kiel set me up with a sweet location. The mobile was hanging over a fantastic table and bench from Bear and Lion. They make some fantastic furniture.

It was an incredible show. There was a piece by Yoko Ono, a Chuck Close spotting, live graffiti under the High Line, free booze. It was fantastic. Open till Oct. 17th, check it out if you can.

Go see Apartment Therapy’s post on it, much better pictures than I took.

So I was hoping I’d be able to show off the Tagged Mobile Homes someday, I just didn’t know it would happen this quickly. The mobile will be showing at The Drop on Oct. 3rd to Oct 17th. It looks like it’s going to be a great time.

Again I want to thank everyone who helped with this one.

I am very excited about this project.

It started with a great idea from Kiel Mead. During the Hue Are You? show he said, “Wouldn’t it have been cool if we got street artists to tag all of the Mobile Homes houses?” Yes it would Kiel, yes it would.

Once I met superk8, things started to happen. Kate was my connection to some great people. She and a bunch of other artists get together for a show called the Conscious Cycle (the video below is actually last year’s Conscious Cycle).

The Conscious Cycle was held on Governors Island in NYC during the Figment festival. I met a bunch of great people there, and everyone was cool with lending me a hand. During their down time from painting the mural, they all decorated my silly little houses. So cool. I think they all turned out great.

The artists involved are:

Thanks again everybody.

I was at the Whitney Museum the other day and came across the Art-o-mat in the gift shop. A very cool (and cheap) way of getting your hands on some art.

Art-o-mat machines are retired cigarette vending machines that have been converted to vend art. There are 82 active machines in various locations throughout the country.

I got a cool little wooden sculpture wrapped up like a pack of cigarettes. I love this idea.
