Dropping tomorrow (Friday December 16th) on Tado’s recently relaunched store, their latest collaboration with Creo Design comes in the form of Funghi, a 4″ resin mushroom beastie available in a staggering 35 different colourways. The little guys have been limited to a run of 60, with each signed, numbered, and boxed by Tado themselves. Priced at £45 each plus p&p, be sure to check out either Tado or Creo’s stores from 12 noon GMT to bag yours- they won’t be hanging around for long!
Alongside working on the Funghi project, the Scottish couple have also been readying their latest batch of handmade plushes for the Tado shop. The huge collection of soft toys have been stuffed and stitched with the help of the amazingly talented Felt Mistress, and should hopefully still be on target for a release before Christmas. Check the wearetado blog for information on sizes/pricing.
In conjunction with Disney’s The Muppets motion picture, group art show “Lovers, Dreamers, & Me” pays homage to the late, great Jim Henson. Opening last Saturday (December 10th) at the Nucleus gallery, Tado, along with over 30 other artists participated in the mixed media exhibition.
Choosing their favourite Fraggle Rock characters, the hard working and songful Doozers, Tado have lovingly re-interpreted the cute green builders using paper mâché in their trademark super-deformed style. For more information, and to view the rest of the show, check out Nucleus’ site here.
