It doesn’t take much for Keith Haring’s bold prints to stand out from the crowd and catch the eye, but the 1984 Untitled (Le Mans) is a work of endless captivation. Immortalised in Sumi ink on a 75 by 100cm is the late artist-activist’s surreal take on the issues of the era through the use of the stylistic vocabulary, emblematic to Haring. The original painting is now up for bidding on Sothebys until Oct 22, if you’re looking to fill your wall space with the ultimate conversation starter.

Bunny’s out of the bag; Indonesian artist ArkivVilmansa teases the anticipated merchandise release of the Arkiv-touched rabbit, Rabbiv In Wounderland.

Highly inspired by cartoon characters from his childhood, the toy designer’s works take the form of brightly-coloured pop art that reimagines various animated icons such as Mickey Mouse and The Smurfs. Among his originals is the floppy-eared Rabbiv character, with previous incarnations including prints and a prototypical sculpture of the bunny-banana hybrid that found itself coveted by fans.

Available for preorder online tomorrow on MuseumOfToys.

Founder of tattoo parlour toothandnail.tattoo (previously known as The Standard Tattoo), kelvinleow.tattoo is among the top celebrated body artists in Singapore and has even left his mark on Olympic champion Joseph Schooling.

At 17, Kelvin fed his inner curiosities by acquiring his first ink, and by 21, he was taken under the wing of Visual Orgasm’s joseph_visual_orgasm as a protégé. Kelvin recounts that his first forays in inking started out rough due to his lack of background in art, but with time and practice, he now proudly fronts the two-storey studio located on Kandahar Street. Having worked his way from the bottom rungs during his time as an apprentice, he shares his appreciation to the local tattoo community and its hospitality that extends beyond studios.

Today, ink enthusiasts across all experience levels seek out Tooth & Nail; many claiming that Kelvin’s niche lies in the realm of black-and-grey realism pieces. According to the man himself, his favourite subjects to etch on the skin are horror-related, such as skulls and demons, with the occasional animal and human portraits. When asked about his best work, Kelvin humbly responds that he is undecided and that he merely works toward bettering himself with each finished piece.

DDTStore brings the lovably macabre work of black humour artist SirJoanCornella to life once again with “FWEN”, a colourful vinyl figure of a freshly-amputated man and his good friend from the punchline of his beloved six-panelled comic. Alongside the figure, fans are also able to procure the inspirational giclée print: “I HOPE I DIE SOON”, that will make for the perfect wall decor. The collaboration drops online on Oct 15; each item comes with a printed signature.
