carrot and stick

Kathie Olivas is an internationally emerging artist, independent curator, and obsessive art collector currently based in Tampa, FL and Sandia Park, NM.
One of her current projects is a limited edition vinyl toys with Wheaty Wheat Studios and a book project with the very talented Murphy Design

What I think makes her work so special -and especially the toys- is the morbid air. Most of the contemporary toys are more part of a happy, vivid world.
Her work reminds me of Tim Burton's work.






Also have a look at her blog for recent news.
