"As a long-time fan of underground art recently relocated to Columbus, this exhibition is the chance I have been looking for to showcase the exploding global art toy scene in my new hometown. Currently without a consistent local outlet for the creations of the lowbrow and alternative art/toy world, Columbus nevertheless has a growing arts community and appears to be very receptive to a wide variety of art forms. I hope this exhibition helps to foster a wider regional appreciation for the diversity in the underground art scene that I see in my travels at galleries around the country."
