Icarus
INTRODUCING THE ICARUS TANK TOP. Inspired by the Florida heat and Global Warming really, all of the clothing items that we drop will more than likely be short and sleeveless cause it’s too hot for anything else.
it comes in 2 colors and is unisex. I’ll also be adding a crop top version as well for the ladies.
ideas: I come up with the ideas for these products on the fly. Many of the images are already made but they somehow get connected to a current circumstance. The same happened with the journals. This formula works better for me cause I’m not constantly forcing new products out. While I love the products that I drop, I know I dont want that to be my main focus since I have so many other projects currently in the works.
PROJECTS:
Speaking of projects here’s a few things I’m currently working on:
Good Jeans & Brown Suga
Good Jeans & Brown Suga: Good Dreams exhibition is an exhibition of my photo series. I’m super excited. I have to get the photos printed and framed. This will be my first solo exhibition. I’ve been manifesting this for so long. Mo may not be in this exhibition but I’ll find a way to sneak him in.
Kado Watches: so what originally started during Covid, I create a brand called Kado watches. I designed a bunch of watches but only came out with one. One that I gifted my dad. But after a resurgence of this passion and this recent trip to Colombia I was inspired to design another. I know this process will be long but I’m excited to go on this journey. The goal is to quit my current job at the frame shop and work at a watch and clock shop and build my skills and knowledge there and further my career as a watch designer. The design I’m currently working on is called Colombiana: Colosseum. Inspired by the bull fighting colosseum we visited while I was there which is now a mall. I seen a lot of “circles” which fueled the inspiration and design. Colombiana will be a series based on these concepts. Some include: Kombilesa Mi a black watch design based on Palenge. And a bull fighting one.
The Antagonist
and finally the 3rd priority project is The Antagonist, an animated music video for Xaire. This will definitely push my limits as an artist but the concept is so cool I actually can’t wait to see the finished product.
I am still figuring out a structure to these blogs. But I kinda like this flow. Updates on Everything and Mo and this site, current ongoing projects, idea formulation and etc. it is loosely inspired by Jake Parker’s newsletter who is part of the reason I even began this section of my site. Him and Tsu ! Another thing I wanna add is other artists/people who inspire me. I’ll do a better break down next time but for now, keep moving, keep loving ❤️🔥.
