ARTIST BIO: "LOFI Collective is an art toy designer, who obtains the motives from music. LOFI is expanding LOFI's extent of expression of the theme, reaching to illustration, animation, potteries and so on. "Sunny and Cloudy weather shop", comprising of characters relating to wethers and emotions, motivated by 'Why does it always rain on me' by Travis. ( Skoll, in the recent project 'Sunny and cloudy weather shop', is a girl who lets it rain and lets the lightning strike. The name sounds similar with "Squall", which means a shower; the impression of sun-chasing wolf 'Skoll' in Celtic mythology and the image of lightning monster 'Raju' in Japan are also adopted. The wolf above the head represents the mind of the girl. When she is calm, it does not rain since the wolf sleeps; when she is not, the wolf wakes up and it starts raining. ) LOFI's plans to create a series of characters relating to weather and their colored version, starting with 'Skoll'."
