BE@RBRICK ENTRANCE to Urban Sneaker Society 2019
Hype-beast-events are the current rage in Asia, what with YO'HOOD in Shanghai, Street Superior in Singapore, and the upcoming Culture Cartel happening in a month's time, while in Jakarta, The Urban Sneaker Society is happening over the weekend (who we had a glimpse of the Museum of Toys' exhibit), in celebration of commercial fashion brands and sneaker-culture, with today Sunday being the last day.
Thanks to Win from @museumoftoys we get to have a look at the entrance to the event, lined with BE@RBRICKS galore - the collectible since adopted by hype-beast-styled events, with its platform "BEAR"-shape uniform in visual reference, skin designs capable of wearing designs rabbling from nostalgia to hype-brands and POP-pular characters from cartoon, animation and all forms of media!
There had been a conversation earlier, about WHAT BE@RBRICKS are: "Designer Toy"? "Art Toy"? Or have they since transcended our generic terminology? Let me know what you think, in the comments section ... meanwhile, MORE pictures!
