I had the honor of being invited by Ms. Zukie (Alison Perez) to participate in the Zukie Vs. The World show. The Zukie is Alison’s new do-it-yourself (DIY) vinyl platform, and for this show many very talented artists (and then me) were asked to take the Zukie and put our own spin on it. This will be the second time that I will have something on display at ToyTokyo’s TTUnderground this year (the other being my custom Outer Space Men).
The following event details were taken from TTUnderground’s site.

Zukie’s are HERE!
SHHHH, Zukies don’t chatter a word!
They speak heart to heart and soul to soul! Expressing thoughts and emotions from their hearts in puffy bubbles bursting from their tiny bodies. Projecting colors and images by the energy they embody.
Zukies are so CHUBBY! They’re ready to burst from all the love they contain!
The DIY Zukie is a New Blank Vinyl Base for Artist to customize something new, fresh and CHUBBY!!
TTUnderground is located on 91 2nd Avenue – Lower Level, in the East Village of Manhattan. It was created by Toy Tokyo – The Ultimate Toy Store Experience. Visit the toy store at 91 Second Avenue, New York, NY or call 212-673-5424 for more information.

So… here is my submission for the Zukie Vs. The World show, The Provocateurs. If any of you happen to be in NYC during the time that this show runs, I highly recommend you stopping by and checking out all of the awesome Zukies!
