Droplet #2 Launch

target — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 21:15:44 +0000

Thanks to the internet and to a couple of friends abroad, I’m bringing you the first (hope not the last) of posts by people I truly trust in to help push this website further. So without further ado, I present to you the Droplet #2 Launch that took place yesterday at FiftyFifty Gallery in Bristol by the hands of Renato Pequito and Rita Cruz.

Sit back and enjoy the show

“The Droplets are back and Mr. Strange didn’t disappoint anyone with the brilliant Series 2 Launch at the FiftyFifty Store/Gallery. The launch was divided in two parts, the ground floor had over 50 custom droplets all designed by different artists, including Nick Park, TADO, Pete Fowler and many many more. Cupcakes, drinks and fun was on the house, with plenty of people turning up. The first 50 that bought the new series Droplets on the upstairs floor had a goodie bag (no… didn’t want to be in the cold waiting but still got an amazing Sad Droplet and a Tote bag), on the store they even had a big ass droplet to everyone customize it. A really good night.”

These cupcakes are a real must!

I particularly love this Super Mario Bros Droplet. So cool with these colors.

And this one I believe it is wonderfully executed.

For a fullscreen slideshow on these pics, just see it on Flickr!
And Rita brought us a video from the event, just so that we could feel the mood inside.

I wanna thank once again Renato and Rita for their support. See you soon…

Been to Fabrica Features last Sunday afternoon for another exhibition with Portuguese artists. Just made a quick visit, but enough to take some shots at the works from Ricardo Milne and Catarina Nunes who founded TOSCA.lab that merges such areas as ceramics, design and illustration. They’re currently in Lagos at the LAC (Laboratório de Actividades Criativas). You can find out more about new Fabrica exhibitions here.

Jessica Fortner creates her sculptures by hand, and they have a unique touch on each toy she creates. But finding out that a talented artist such as Jessica Fortner is also the girlfriend of another talented artist such as Michael Wandelmaier, now what’s the chances on that?
Find out more on their work, and also check Toycyte website, as they’re giving away a Furry Friend by Jessica Fortner.
