We are so excited to announce this project. This is probably the first ever wall mounted vinyl toy, not to mention the first ever dedicated to the art of hard core bombing.

THE MIRF!

Next month,1134NYC teams up with NYC Art Toy Brand Thunderdog Studios to release the first ever graffiti based, wall mounted, vinyl toy.

Designed by 1134 members MINT & SERF, this toy features a pure collaboration, merging their styles to form the iconic ‘MIRF’. More of a sculpture than a toy, the 9″ long MIRF is rotary molded in soft-vinyl and made in 4 color-ways, each limited to 200 pieces. The sleek sculpting of the MIRF is accentuated by its’ luxurious packaging which features a slide out box, silver foil and a two sided, flocked, blister tray.

East Coast (Black & White Matte) & West Coast (Black & White Glossy) editions are set to launch in June, 2008.

About MINT & SERF:

A true Collaborative process, that is a complete unification of a shared idea, reaches the point when egos lose themselves for a greater good and a common creative goal. For the last ten years, Mikhail Sokovikov (MINT) and Jason Wall (SERF), working side by side in countless artistic endeavors, perfected and reinvented the concept of collaboration. Its’ creative production after five years of dedication is MIRF. Shifting public perception of vinyl collectibles, fine art, design and sculpture, the collaborative team of Mint and Serf introduces the MIRF vinyl sculpture. Owning a MIRF is like possessing something that exceeds past the individual and bridges inspirations, past, present and future.
