3 Bears Dunny 8-inch Series by ilovedust, Tado, and Jon Burgerman
From three world-famous UK artists—TADO, ilovedust, and Jon Burgerman—come three new Dunnys, guaranteed to be not too hot, not too cold, but jussst right.
Each figure in this three-toy series comes in a bold black and blue color and includes accessories like Zulu Mong’s Dunny-headed mallet, Tea Bear’s bone-dry teacup, and Uncle Bucky’s wooden fishing rod. Individually packaged, these 8-inch vinyls will be sold in a collaboratively designed box by the artists for $50.
Lots and lots of drawings were produced for this show. Many of these are collaborations between myself, Ian Stevenson and Andrew Rae. Contact Supalife for availability on any of these pieces and to see more of the work produced for the show.
It is printed onto high quality Bright White Wove paper and cut down to 60 cm x 42 cm. The paper is 100% recycled and printed using water based inks. Each print is hand numbered and signed.
