Monday Bunday: Koyzndan

I first stumbled across Kozyndan’s work in 2007 and was mesmerised. Was there really another asian girl/white boy duo out there making bunny art? Really?! When I found out they were having an exhibition right here in Auckland a few weeks later, I was ecstatic! Their opening night at Webb’s gallery was packed. Nice to see digital art getting a foot in the door at more a traditional auction house like Webb’s. They have just released Uprisings – a rotocast vinly sculpture that can be a bookend or a stand alone sculpture. Based on their bunnyfied version of Hokusai’s famous print “The Great Wave Off Kanagawa”. At only $75, it’s well priced for a fabulous modern piece of bunny art. Here are more of Kozyndan’s bunny influenced pieces.

Monday Bunday 1: Rabbit-Kun

Welcome to the first Monday Bunday! Monday Bunday will look at the special combination of Bunnies and Design. This is Rabbit-kun (translates to Dear Mr. Rabbit), a sweet plastic bag with eyes, an X-shaped mouth, and a pair of bunny ears that double as handles. Brought to you by by Tokyo-based creative group MAQ Inc. Rabbit-kun aims to inspire a more responsible attitude toward waste by providing a cute and stylish way for people to carry their trash home after a day outdoors. Whether it’s a picnic in the park, a hike in the mountains, or a day at the beach — or any place without public trash cans — Rabbit-kun is charming enough that you might actually enjoy carting your garbage all the way home.
