TweetJapanese label BlackEyePatch drops a graphics-heavy customisation of Reebok’s Club C 85 Sneaker, with the British sportswear company’s name toyed with using motifs from popular culture.
On the side of the sneaker, Reebok is printed across in a large multicoloured print, with each letter being created from fonts and symbols found in everyday life. This is complemented with a smiley face motif, printed on the toebox of the sneaker, where Reebok is used in replacement of eyes.

Christina Forrer’s vibrant weavings and works on paper explore and excavate conflict as the essence of all relationships, between humans, animals, and the natural world at large. Fairy tales, children’s books, European folklore, Hollywood animation, and 20th century painting and design are some of the myriad influences that Forrer mines and incorporates into her entirely singular style and practice.
In her recent artist’s book, Forrer forges a connection between literature and her creative process, most notably exorcised through her prodigious drawing process. The publication features drawings and details of weavings, as well as notes and doodles populating the margins of The Murder of a Buttercup, a 1913 short story by the German novelist Alfred Döblin that depicts the internal struggles of a shopkeeper after a violent encounter with a flower.

The exhibition features new works from the artist’s Special Characters series, alongside a selection of her recent paintings and photographic collages. In addition to building upon themes that are essential to her practice, including the nature of representation, identity, gender, and race, Simpson incorporates imagery of the natural world, universal elements that transcend human presence. By repurposing and reconfiguring found images – a signature source in her work – Simpson creates her own highly distinctive visual terrain that offers a potent response to American life today.

Fronted by an earthy colored vintage varsity jacket, the piece arrives with brown calf leather sleeves and embellishments that read “Be Yourself Only For Yourself” on the right chest, along with a mindseeker logo and an oversized “$” emblem on the back — the latter being representative of Tokyo’s Ura-Harajuku district while providing a luxurious feel. The collection is also comprised of grey and black T-shirts, hoodies and track pants that are contrasted by the yellow and turquoise logos of mindseeker and BBC/ICECREAM’s running dog mascot.
