Untitled Blown Away ClearTeq63

Los Angeles based artist Josh Mayhem's lifelong habit of collecting children's playthings has fueled his passion for transforming said toys into objects d'art. Among his best-known pieces are those constituting his “Blown Away” series, in which mass-produced forms are covered in strands of resin and layers of acrylic paint to create gravity-defying drips that give the impression of the work being deconstructed by a strong wind. The popularity of this aesthetic has led to Mayhem winning the Custom of the Year (Fan) award at the 2019 Designer Toys Awards, multiple releases with the many of the worlds top designer toy artists and producers, participating in TRASHed: Art of Recycling at Coachella Festival, and solo exhibitions at Clutter Gallery in Beacon NY, Bruce Lurie Gallery in Los Angeles CA (as well as an artist residency) , PIQ Grand Central Terminal in NYC, and The Crown Collection Gallery in both Denver and Los Angeles. In the process of creating his coveted sculptural works, Josh Mayhem uses gallery-quality canvases as drop cloths. As each becomes decorated with an accumulation of colorful drips, patterns begin to emerge in the artist's mind. Augmenting each one with coatings of synthetic resin and additional paint splashes, these works TEQ63 is a designer art toy created by QUICCS, a Filipino artist known for his fusion of streetwear, cyberpunk, and mecha aesthetics. The character is heavily influenced by Japanese mecha (especially Gundam), hip-hop culture, and urban graffiti, making it one of the most recognizable figures in the modern art toy scene. TEQ63 is typically depicted wearing a hoodie, a futuristic skull-like helmet with a visor, and sneakers, often resembling classic streetwear styles. The toy exudes a futuristic, dystopian vibe, with robotic or mechanical details that give it a tech-infused personality. Many releases include different colorways, special editions, and collaborations with brands like Adidas, Kidrobot, Martian Toys, and Devil Toys. TEQ63 figures are primarily produced by Martian Toys and come in multiple sizes and materials, including vinyl, resin, and sofubi (Japanese soft vinyl). Variants range from standard 6-inch figures to oversized, limited-edition versions, as well as exclusive artist collaborations featuring unique designs and colors
