Dusen Dusen Everybody Tissue Box

-
“While I was making this tissue box for a show of face vessels at Fredericks & Mae, I was designing a collection of striped towels—so I was in stripe mode. I applied the stripes to a graphic face motif I originally drew in illustrator and went from there.”

“I have always been drawn to color in a visceral way. I've gotten particularly into stripes in my own work as it is one of the purest forms of putting color together—it allows color to do all the work.”
-
“I think color relationships are more important than any color on its own. I see it sort of like different keys in music—as long as you keep the relationship between notes the same, you have the same song.”
