FREDDIESDOUBLE Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Union Jack Tapestry: I love that it's covered in flowers and butterflies--the Union Jack is so often associated with bad nationalism. Having grown up in so many places, I'm not shackled by patriotism. :biggrin2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxmika-maddo-joxx Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Jim Woodring Artwork: He's a self-taught cult illustrator from Seattle. This is the rabbit-like creature Frank, who I think the rabbit in the movie Donnie Darko was based on. Frank exists in a surrealist, poetic, comic-book world where everything's very dreamlike. Oh my god! NO WAY! THIS IS QUITE SCARY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mandilambi Posted September 20, 2009 Author Share Posted September 20, 2009 I should have mentioned earlier that this issue may not be out on stands yet. I am not sure. I got my copy through my boyfriend because he gets Spin for free. I guess just keeps your eyes open for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewokwicket Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 (edited) Thanks for posting, I love that article, it's a bit different to all the ones we have read recently and I like all his possesions especially the Union Jack tapestry. I want that. Edited September 20, 2009 by ewokwicket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dragon Lady Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Mandilambi thanks so much for posting this, it's terrific! I really love just how much of an appreciation MIKA has for Art and how he doesn't hesitate to purchase pieces which speak to him. Love the fact that he spent half of his signing pennies on paying off debts and the other half on that lovely miniature theatre! I tend to do things like that too when it comes to Art! Also love his Union Jack tapestry. I first noticed it in the photograph of MIKA and Yasmine in the March 2008 issue of the American VOGUE (the article was about Yasmine’s sense of style), but did not know until last Summer that that photograph was taken in MIKA's flat, and thus, that the UJ tapestry in it was his. I think that he has a really good eye for interesting and original pieces, whether it be pieces of Art or accessories for the home or self. Will be on the lookout for this issue of Spin Magazine tomorrow while out shopping for the Deluxe Edition of “The Boy Who Knew Too Much” (finally!)! Thanks again!

mandilambi Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 No problem at all, Dragon Lady, glad to share with you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Thanks Christine!How did you find this?! I noticed it in the PDP documentary and imagined it some kind of Sex Pistols Union Jack type of deal. When Mika was in Toronto he wore a stylized glittery t-shirt based on a Sex Pistols album cover so I thought it might be something similar. When I searched around for rugs I actually found something by Vivienne Westwood that was kind of cool. Alas when I did stumble across this tapestry with the butterflies it wasn't exactly the punk flag I had envisioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
