The second volume of Kidrobot’s compendium of Art Toys has recently been released.
It’s a veritable who’s who of underground toy based art.
And I am happy to announce several pages of this splendid volume are dedicated to my humble works.

You can pick it up from most good bookshops and of course online.

The launch party for the new UK based mini platform toy “Jinny” by BitBots was a few nights ago in a pop-up store/gallery in Soho London.
I had a custom piece in the show along with a host of other UK artists.

So if you like the look of it drop the BitBots fellows an email or toddle along to the gallery. All the info is on their website.
