Mr. Plum

He has been working under the pseudonym “dust” since 2000. His artistic background is Street art. In 2005 he graduated as licensed graphic artist. Since then he has been working as a freelance Designer and Illustrator. Through this field of activity, respectively projects and orderings he is able to foster his freelance work. He does illustrations and conceptualizations, but his freelance activities in the fields Contemporary Art and New Art fulfil him artistically. To design and to experiment, as well as the creation of sculptures, respectively Art/Design toys fill him with enthusiasm. Moreover the creation of Design toys form the main part of his occupation. He started his first Design toy collection in 2006 and his first turnout were the “RAS” (Radical Action Suit), which could be found, initially only as stickers or paintings, at various places/exhibitions.Later that year he accomplished to take the next step and created a 75mm tall Mastermodel, that watched over his working table. Several months later the first „RAS“ arrived in stores. In 2007 the „RAS“ were followed by „the teddies“ with the motto “Angst vorm Sterben?”( “afraid to die?”). All his Design toys are lavishly produced limited editions. They are manufactured in Germany and uniquely painted. This profile is a mix of all designer toys made by the artists. We may reorganize this profile in the future and an artists that creates their own toys would have a separate manufacturer profile.
