We like to keep our eyes on what’s going on in the Art Vinyl Toy World whenever we can. This month, artist César Zanardi (who we had the pleasure of meeting through mutual friend, Nathan Jurevicius) has partnered with Art Junkie, Kamakiri, and Devil Robots on an exhibition with customized forms of his character, the CERRITO. Below is some more information and a few questions we asked him about his art form and his intro to Kidrobot and for the official Press Announcement – LaTen – FINAL 20180807
ENJOY!
CERRITO project started as a collection of icons in a sketchbook, a full lineup of a peculiar shape of “an animal that there is no particular animal”.
Of course! I enjoy every time that happens… as more new perspectives get involved to CERRITO, the better it becomes. I hope to see even more!!

Q & A with Toy Designer One-Eyed Girl AKA Kasey Tararuj on release of The Rejects - Dark Chocolate Edition on Kidrobot.com. "I’ve been paralyzed and in a wheelchair for almost 20 years and I spent so much of that time creating all this weird, emotional art to help deal with it. I got to a point where that got old and making these silly characters was way more therapeutic than trying to put my feelings into a painting. So now I make my little guys to make myself laugh or smile and hope that it does the same for others." -One-Eyed Girl AKA Kasey Tararuj
