To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Rockin' Jelly Bean's official shop EROSTIKA, an exhibition and pop-up will be held at BEAMS JAPAN!
The exhibition will feature works and original drawings by Rockin'Jelly Bean, who has an overwhelming artistic ability and unique ideas, that express the worldview of exploitation films that EROSTIKA advocates as "TOTALLY, SHAMELESS, DIRTY AND OBSCENE". We will look back on the trajectory of EROSTIKA and Rockin'Jelly Bean over the past 20 years.
**************
A dripper and mug set with a skull and bone motif. The skull design by Rockin'Jelly Bean has been turned into a three-dimensional sculpture by MAD SCULPTURES WARE. This is Seto ware fired at a pottery studio in Seto City, Aichi Prefecture.
Please use a cone-shaped paper dripper. The lightning bolt grooves carved into the inside allow coffee drops to fall into the mug at a constant pace. The hollow structure also improves heat retention.
