Piccalilicus and the Magical Multicoloured Cardy of Wonder and Wonderment

Jon Burgerman x Felt Mistress for Multiversal

The JB x FM collaboration keeps rolling, and this time Jon teams up with Louise aka Felt Mistress in a piece for the Multiversal Group Show, opening December 3rd in Miami. If you’re wondering how these collabs work, in this case, Jon sent Louise “a naked character design to dress.” I asked her about the inspiration for that terrific cardigan: “Fancy cardigans always come to mind when thinking of Jon.” Do those socks come in adult sizes??? Check out previous JB x FM soft sculptures in the artkive here. I’ll actually be on site to see this show in Miami. I’ll try to play it cool, and not re-enact this moment that has remained with me since 1994 when Weezer opened for Lush and these dudes from New Jersey pulled out a sweater and started unraveling it during Weezer’s signature song. I was there for Lush, and found the whole moment rather unfortunate, but see, it’s still with me 15 years later.
