About this Artist

МИШКА—born in Brooklyn, raised in Hell—has been a streetwear fixture since 2003. Founded by Mikhail Bortnik and Greg Rivera, МИШКА began as a company that made cool t-shirts. It has since grown into a lifestyle brand that has created its own culture. МИШКА has crafted a distinct world for itself and its legion of Death Adders. The brand can trace its roots back to New York City’s “fertile crescent” of Hip-Hop, Street-art and Punk. The “do it yourself” ethics of 1980s New York City is the heart that beats at the center of МИШКА. Graphic images range from staggeringly unique and original kaleidoscopic fever dreams, to tongue-in-cheek flips of established logos and images. МИШКА also offers a Cut and Sew line that boasts slim fits and custom sizing. The cuts of garments range from traditional silhouettes to unexpected—and strangely sophisticated—pieces that push the limits of what is considered "normal." The fabrics used are engineered to provide maximum comfort and mobility for today’s active culture. Self-produced art toys are designer collectibles created and manufactured independently by the artist or small teams without the backing of a large toy company or mass-market brand. These toys are often highly personal, artistic expressions and are usually made in limited runs. Key Characteristics include independent creation where the artist is in control of the entire process from concept, sculpting, and painting to production and packaging. These are usually made in small batches, often 10–100 pieces, which adds to their rarity, made using materials like resin, sofubi (Japanese soft vinyl), or 3D-printed components. Grape Brain is a Japanese artist and designer known for a distinctive, colorful, and surreal art style that blends elements of pop art, street culture, and retro aesthetics. The artist’s work often features exaggerated characters with bold outlines, vibrant color palettes, and a playful yet slightly eerie quality. Grape Brain has collaborated with various brands, toy designers, and apparel companies, creating unique figures, apparel designs, and illustrations that stand out for their eye-catching, almost psychedelic appeal.
