About this Artist
Muxxi is an illustrator and character designer from Guatemala, based in Berlin, Germany. Over the years she has developed a distinctive and unique style, creating colorful and whimsical worlds full of joy and magic. Her work is predominantly digital but she also loves to explore and experiment with different techniques and delve into painting and sculpting in her home studio. Her quirky characters and illustrations have been featured in multiple gallery exhibitions and published in popular design books and magazines such as Creative Review, IdN, and Computer Arts. The toy is based on a rabbit figure with distinctive tubular ears. The origin of the name Dunny came from a combination of street slang and one of the early "Devil Bunny" prototypes. The Dunny is sold in four sizes - 3", 5", 8" and 20". The toy has three points of articulation; a 360 degree rotational head and two arms. An artist card or sticker is also included with the 3" Dunny from a series. Most 3" Dunnys and some 8" Dunnys are normally sold as "blind assortment"; the figure is packaged inside a sealed foil wrapper, such that the buyer is not able to see which figure and accessories they are buying. Sealing the figure prevents people from opening and peeking in the boxes and buying only the figures they want. Most Dunnys are packaged inside a clear plastic bag in addition to the foil wrapper. In the second-hand market, this assures the buyer that the article was never on display and is in a "new" condition. With the success of vinyl toys as a medium for expression, many fans and artists have put their own design onto blank Dunnys. Kidrobot and The Designer Toy Awards have teamed up once again to present the next installment in the prestigious DTA Dunny Show. Five Points Festival is America's premiere Designer Toy festival, bringing together the shining stars of Designer Toys, Street Art, Indie Comics, Enamel Pins and Apparel from all over the world under one roof!
