Carnies Mini Series by Brandt Peters



Carnies Mini Series

The skies darken, the wind howls, and you’re drawn to the eerie carnival inhabited by the Carnies, created by Brandt Peters.
Reminiscent of retro animation, each of the 13 carnies in this nightmarish mini-series, including the two chases, stand at 3-inches and are colored in grayscale. Retailing for $9.95 each, Carnies arrive at Kidrobot stores, kidrobot.com, and Spaghetti Project on March 4.

Call-To-Artists!!!

Call-To-Artists!!!

For the first time ever, the Workhouse Arts Center will be partnering with the Spaghetti Project of Fredericksburg in an exhibition of Vinyl Art toys. Artists, this is your chance to showcase your talent! For a $25 entry fee per entry (enter as many times as you like) your customized toy can be a part of Urban Decay: A Carnival of Custom Vinyl and Low-brow Art, an upcoming exhibition at the Workhouse to be held in Gallery W-16 from April 28th to May 9th .

Just what is a Vinyl Art Toy? Vinyl Art toys or “Designer toys” are terms used to describe toys and other collectibles that are produced in limited editions, (as few as 10 or as many as 2000 pieces) and created by artists and designers. Designer toys are made of a variety of materials; ABS plastic and vinyl are most common, although wood, metal, and resin are occasionally used. The term also encompasses plush, cloth and latex dolls. Creators of designer toys usually have backgrounds in graphic design, illustration or self-described low brow art. Some designers are classically trained in art and design, while others are self-taught. Designer toys appeared in the 1990s by artist Michael Lau, who first created urban vinyl figures in Hong Kong, and are still in production today.

Please submit your customized toy, your name, title, price (if for sale) and the $25 entry fee to the Workhouse Arts Center between 12-5 pm on April 24th and April 25th to Gallery W-16, first floor, at 9601 Ox Road, Lorton, VA, 22079.
