Blue Breathe For All (Incense Burner)

‘Mr Clement’ is the artistic pseudonym for my work as an illustrator and sculptor. My inspirations come from comics, popular culture, porn and classical music. I work to soften the traditionally highbrow fine art by mixing it with popular sub-culture from the West and the East. I am constantly exploring a new and accessible platform to present my artwork and experiment with the concept of drawing and sculpture in different contexts. I produce friendly artwork in the form of graphic novel, animation and sculpture, Simplicity and Fun are important, as I see it necessary to have a more direct and pure way for people to understand artwork and to relate themselves to the work and the world beyond. Simplicity also allows artists to break down cultural boundaries. 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. Woot Bear is a distinctive collectible designer toy store and art gallery located in San Francisco, California. Situated at 1512 Haight Street, it serves as both a retail space and a platform for artists to showcase their work. Woot Bear curates monthly art exhibitions, providing a venue for artists from around the world to present their creations. These exhibitions often feature original pieces alongside collectible figurines and products from various renowned brands.
