faesthetic 11

Faesthetic issue 11: Folklore & Ghost stories.
A Piece of Japanese Folklore - Karasu Tengu - in the Ainu Tradition.
Hand-Scripted Calligraphics by Aerosyn-Lex.

I was recently invited to participate in the latest issue of one of my favorite ART Tomes - FAESTHETIC. Each themed issue includes the work of many prominent and promising Illustrators and Artists. I was asked to create something with the idea of FOLKLORE + GHOST STORIES in mind. I immediately thought to reinterpret the KARASU TENGU ( japanese demonic crow spirits ) by interpreting an ancient Japanese folk tale into a manuscript representing the KARASU figure. Many thanks to Dustin aka UPSO over at Faesthetic for making this all happen and stay tuned for a surprise coming soon from THREADLESS. ^_~ !

Rochambeau + The KDU: Temporary Book of Metallics.
A Hand-Crafted Tome made to decay and devour itself.
Rochambeau Collection II : Creative Direction + Deconstruction by The KDU.

To celebrate Rochambeau's second collection, The KDU created a one of a kind 19" x 22" hand made book. The book serves as a temporary artifact showcasing the brands most recent collection - then will self destruct through an accelerated oxidation.

The fine papers, leathers and silk used in the construction will soon be overcome by the gold, silver, bronze, copper and iron hand painted and embedded on each page.

Please View : The KDU for more works.
