We are all part of the artistic collective «Klubok.» What unites us is that we are students (past or present) of the «Comics» program at the HSE Art and Design School, and we share a love for our art. What is the main goal of our collective? To allow emerging artists who may not yet have sufficient experience or audience reach to become part of a larger art community through participation in themed challenges and events. Everyone in the community has a role: managing social media, finding exhibitions and markets, submitting event applications, and so on.
Once again, our collective participated in the Illustrator Market Exhibition hosted by MORS, which was part of the «Cartoon Factory» event.
For the market, we have prepared exclusive designer merchandise. To allow everyone to showcase their creativity, we have limited the number of variations of merchandise per artist while expanding the assortment—in addition to postcards, posters, stickers, and keychains, we have added custom interior dolls, figurines, and t-shirts.
The market went successfully. We gathered many positive reviews about our products, received support from the community, and confirmed that promoting our creativity within the collective was the right decision.
