I feel like everything I do stems from my love of Hello Kitty. I have been asked to put a call out to folks for an exhibit that will feature the famous kitty herself at the Emp here in Seattle.
Here is what they are asking for "We are looking for artists of all mediums, may be it plush, traditional / digital media, musicians, anyone who uses Hello Kitty as an inspiration for their work. We currently do not have any restrictions, but are aiming to gather as many different kinds of modern Hello Kitty influences as we can. We are unfortunately still in the brainstorming stage and so the way in which each piece will be incorporated is still being worked out. We do know that we would like to display original artists’ work alongside Sanrio’s official work to make the space more lively. There is still time until the exhibit, and so if anyone interested could contact me at kyokah(at)empsfm(dot)org along with URLs of their website, photo samples of their work, etc. that would be perfect!"
Good Luck!

Hello Kitty!

I love Hello Kitty! I really feel like she is the reason why I love toys. Every time we would go to a "cool city" as a kid, I would buy Hello Kitty items and got so excited. I actually used to work at the Sanrio store in SF making gift baskets which was pretty fun considering I just sat in the basement and got to be creative a little bit. Anyways, Hello Kitty is celebrating her birthday this month and there is a great article about her creator, Yuko Yamaguchi. I used to think we had the exact same DOB but now I am unsure. The days might be different. Anyways, Happy Birthday to her!
