I was recently featured in IdN magazine’s “Self-promotion issue” (Hong Kong) . Out now
I wanted to share my latest press hit with you, a custom suit feature in XXL’s newest issue.
Thanks to stylist William Rawls for using my suit for the spread.
Paris commuter-Harvard professor David Edwards wants to lessen the sins of chocolaholism . . . sniff your chocolate instead of eating it! Oh la la, ze French! Smaller amounts and fewer calories! Le Whif is an invention, by a young American food scientist, who I briefly interviewed in Paris, of inhalable chocolate and is available in four flavours: mint chocolate, raspberry chocolate, mango chocolate, and plain chocolate. What’s next, inhalable crisps?
NO! typographic organic illustration.
Organic and structural typographic illustration, created with Faber Castil and Rotring technical pens. A mass of tangled branches and coral-like fans entwined with sharp structural forms. A sparrow hides amongst the branches guarding her eggs. Hidden amongst the elements is the words ‘NO!’ – this can be seen best via the development images – meaning hidden amongst the mass. Set to be a limited run screen-print.
Full development images and process can be viewed here.

Autumn is definitely upon us, especially here in Maine with the vibrant foliage blazing across the landscape. I am really excited to begin work on my annual Black & White Series of Illustrations. This year will be MWM B/W B:6 (Black & White Bangers. Volume 6). In the last few weeks I’ve enjoyed flipping through my extensive Archive, and plotting on how I will approach this new series with a different narrative and new set of tools and supplies. It has always been, and always will be, 100% hand drawn/painted art. A way for me to continue exploring analog art and trying new things that I don’t get to try in my other art and design endeavors. With each series, I intentionally limit myself to a unique set of supplies and consistent paper size. B/W Bangers 1 was strictly Sharpie on index cards. B/W Bangers 2 (Pictured above) was larger illustrations that forced me to figure out different ways to build texture and depth without shading. B/W Bangers 3 celebrated mixed wet/dry inks and paints. B/W Bangers 4 further explored these techniques and narrative. B/W Bangers 5 (Last Winter) was made with black and white inks and greyscale Prismacolor Markers. For Bangers 6 I am still undecided on the parameters. In an attempt to be different from the past few years, it will either be white ink/paint on black paper, OR I will return to the basics. A Pencil, an Eraser, 2 Sharpies, and a slew of new ideas. Stay tuned in the coming months for previews of the series as it evolves. It will be a blast! *More Recent Work & Play : MWM NEWS BLOG
The KDU respects Studio Job
In Amsterdam, Studio Job designed and produced over 50 compositions for ornamental reliefs casted in concrete tableaux. These are integrated in the faces of a new five building complex. The tableaux cover up to 24,000 sq feet.
I love how Studio Job incorporates their bold, clean, graphical style onto monumental objects. How fantastic it would be to see something like this on the facades of the condo eruption, here, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn?

Hanging Fire, the idiom used to suggest a critical delay, is an appropriate title for the first museum show in America of contemporary art from Pakistan, a country created by partition in 1947 that constitutes the second largest Muslim population in the world. Subject to ongoing complex shearing forces that result in a tenuous daily existence, frequently marked by violence, it fosters a critical mass of outstanding creative individuals in the visual arts whose work reflects or alludes to the coping with and negotiations of that existence.
Arif Mahmood’s Young and the Fearless (2004), gelatin silver print, 16 x 16 in. is a chilling image, prescient of the issues raised in Sikandar, the current film about an adolescent Kashmiri soccer player who comes upon a gun, and emblematic of the false bravado and empowerment issues felt by young men who find themselves in the unfitting position of possessing and handling a firearm. The Karachi-based street photographer states, “I document what I see, but I also give a small part of myself to the image.”
This highly recommended show, curated by the esteemed Salim Hashmi, includes other photo-based works, as well as painting, video, and sculpture by Hamra Abbas, Bani Abidi, Zahoor ul Akhlaq, Faiza Butt, Ayaz Jokhio, Naiza Khan, Huma Mulji, Asma Mundrawala, Imran Qureshi, Rashid Rana, Ali Raza, Answar Saeed, Adeela Suleman, and Mahreen Zuberi.
