The lovely Australian artist’s Noferin are best known for their adorable characters and scenic landscapes reminiscent of traditional ukyo-e Japanese prints and fairy tale illustrations. These characters first made their appearance in the couples, life thru “Have a nice day” notes and gave life to the wonderful world of Carrara Island home to Peacan Pals that have inspired paintings, sculptures, prints, plush, toys and their latest blind box mini wood toys. . . . JIBIBUTS.
The duo has invited 30 plus of today’s most sought after lowbrow artist to reinvent the Jibibuts into their own visions. The result is unlike any other we have had honor to host.
