love and imagination are the strongest ammunition we have
love and imagination are the strongest ammunition we have
i'm catchoo! i grew up loud on the inside and quiet on the outside.
born in canada to chinese-indonesian parents, in a small town where i never quite fit in… always a little out of sync, like playing half a beat off. i tried fitting in for a long time, but turns out that's a full-time job with no benefits so i quit.
growing up on saturday morning cartoons, roller skates, back-of-the-newspaper comics and stickers as fuel. i was always drawing and daydreaming, and that turned into a world of my own: the catchooniverse. my characters are supercute and full of love… they carry connection, courage, and comfort. they're the kind of friends that stick together.
now the catchooniverse lives on streets, walls, canvases, and furniture. whatever will stay still long enough. this is stickerpunk: love and imagination as the strongest ammunition in the rebellion. i make art as an act of love and resistance. *spoiler alert* love wins.
it's bigger than me now: two NOW Toronto features, three solo art shows, the Art on Barton project (40+ artists, one house slated for demolition), too many spray-painted walls, stickers and pasteups all around the world. (little love bombs. have you spotted one in the wild?)
the catchooniverse is still expanding. you're early.
playful, nostalgic & supercute.
sweetly feral. chaos coordinator. 100% organic. serial thrifter. urban explorer. champion lover.
