Aaron Crawford makes monsters. With beautifully grotesque detail he puts them on prints, t-shirts, books, and even buttons. He draws out original and frightening works while also making pieces inspired by classic horror elements like Night of the Creeps and Goosebumps. A lot of his work is limited edition, but new stuff is constantly coming out. I always get comments on the t-shirts I have.

Kai and Sunny produce some of the most distinctive work you could hope to see in the fields of design and illustration: intricate, graceful, and simultaneously simple, yet complex and understated. They work tirelessly in a range of different areas but are perhaps best known for their book covers for the likes of David Mitchell and their recent, large-scale black and white prints. I just love their stuff.

I created this series of prints inspired by 70s wallpaper. The use of geometric forms that create patters has interested me as a pathway to an experience both transcendental and emotive. The series, Systems, hovers between minimalism, abstraction, geometry, stasis and dynamism, while its visual energy of sensuous, buoyant hues makes an instant impact with a vivid sense of spatial illusion. Why the 70s? Because without them, I wouldn’t be here playing with colours.

I created a new shop recently that features artsy things: some limited edition prints, some t-shirts, and some bags. I consider the tees to be more like wearable art, all silkscreened and hand-dyed in my studio in Brooklyn.

Inés and Iván are the two guys behind the cool fashion label, La Casita de Wendy. I like the prints and, above all, I like the way they work and run their brand. Keeping it as a small business is a challenge for them.

‘Asperatus’ roughly translates from Latin to ‘agitated’ and refers to a newly discovered cloud formation which appears as ominous, rippling clouds, but confusingly often disappears without delivering on any threat of storm. This series consists of black and white illustrations occupied with the chaotic and confusing present, when our actions have become increasingly abstracted from their consequences. Asperatus prints will be released in late-October with pre-orders now available.
