Solace in Desolation

MUMBOT is an artist who founded the brand MUMBOT, LLC - an art centered brand focused on providing limited edition and highly collectible art products and content to fans and collectors. "kimokawa" was used to describe my work once. I am inspired by nature, sound, cuteness, science, the weird, the creepy, adventure and my family. Jade Kuei a.k.a. “MUMBOT” is a NY/BKK based artist who also goes by the professional alias of "Mumbot". She exhibits works across the country as well as internationally and has had works published in “Kawaii Design+” (DoPress Books), “Kawaii Manga Adorable!” (HarperDesign) and “Chibi Manga Irresistible” (HarperDesign, Monsa). MUMBOT enjoys creating characters, comics, zines, designer toys, installations of her mythical and magical worlds and more. Be on the look out for Aughostus, Mossy, Shumi Mushrumi, the Girl From the Forest Floor and more who have just begun making their presence known in the designer toy scene. She has taught workshops at various locations as well. In her freetime she has been hard at work developing powerful creative formulas. Kuei illustrates whimsical yet haunted abstractions of her own dreams and experiences. Her kids and their superpowers, have been catalysts of inspiration and as the fulcrum for her further documentation, Who are we? Just your average nerds. He is the calm, quiet & rational one. She is the loud, messy & impulsive one. Ying & Yang. A couple of collectors who love all things pop culture, street art, graffiti & a passion for the strange and unusual. Why are we here & what are we doing? We found through our long journey of collecting, so many amazing independent artists & designers from all over the world, we want to share their creations & show them love & support. We never stopped our passion or love for collecting, but at times, we felt frustrated, burnt out & like much of the community didn’t feel like it was as much fun anymore.
