Silkmag Project #1 by Phuong-Cac Nguyen

The talented employees at Brazilian animation studio Lobo—whose work for clients like Diesel, Hershey, Cartoon Network and more jumps continents—made some extra time recently to put together their first edition of Silkmag, a collection of silkscreened works showcasing the personal work of its 12 animators and designers "free of clients or briefings." Fresh air, then.

Each of the 100 copies created were meticulously made by hand and printed on craft paper, apt for framing. There's no info on the site on how to buy a copy (if there are any left) but there's a PDF available for download, so you can pretend you are among the lucky few to get what will surely be a sought-after collectible.

28th São Paulo Biennial
