Moth Week lined up perfectly with our Community Day! And the full moon... 👀🌕

After a full week of moth-themed events like the Moth Ball hosted by @jbrpc and a lively lecture hosted by @amnh, I was more excited than ever to theme our Community Day at @thetrainercourt around these often-overlooked pollinators. Not only are they critical to the reproductive cycles of countless plants- moths comprise TEN PERCENT of ALL named species. I likened Venonat less to a gnat and more to a mite, with its fused body... but I think it still worked out 🙂‍↕️ Venonat is the larval stage, and through "Evolution," metamorphoses into Venomoth. Such a diverse and important group, fittingly represented by a similarly underrepresented line of Pokémon.

Bringing these little bugs to life with a room full of inspired crafters also excited to hear about how their Venonat might live worked so well, and I loved chatting with everyone during each session and even after the last session wrapped up. @project0151 continues this idea at a grander scale- by seeing how ALL 151 Kanto pokémon might live in and around the big city. I'm excited to explore these guys in more detail over there 👀

⚠️Stay safe out there! What's good for one species might not be for another 😶‍🌫️

To most living creatures, the smoky haze from the northern wildfires that currently blankets our city is stifling or dangerous. However, for a select few, conditions like these can be helpful and even comfortable. We call the species that thrive where few else can "extremophiles." 🔥

While we wear masks and filter our air to protect our mouths and lungs, Koffing have been drawn out in droves. We know they expel gases noxious to humans, and their volcanic and toxic habitats suggest they thrive best in polluted air: thick with airborne, particulate matter. When we breathe in, these comparatively large particles can easily make it into our bloodstream, where they can become dangerous- while Koffing may use abundant aerosols as a source of energy. What works for them certainly doesn't work for us, and vice versa. 💨

It's important to understand that there's no one "healthy habitat" for all life. That when climate and environment begin to change, we might expect our familiar habitat to have new visitors & to feel less comfortable. All systems are connected, and protecting your body's system-- especially from unhealthy air-- is necessary to continue your adventure. Please mask up and reduce outdoor exercise until the Koffing settle somewhere else 🙏 😷

Pokémon Day with @ebay & @thepokecourt!!

Stop by The Standard Biergarten today before 8pm for a look at @project0151 and a scavenger hunt featuring my life-size pipe cleaner pokémon 👀👀

I'm honored to be exhibiting Project 151 for the first time as an interactable diorama exhibit. This is an INCREDIBLE event uniting the pokémon community in the spirit of collecting. HUGE thanks to The Trainer Court & eBay live teams, both have put a ton of work into making this Pokémon Day a one to remember.💫

VOLTORB #Pokemon

📍Many of you know this, but I've been working on a massive undertaking crafting the original 151 pokémon, to-scale with one another out of pipe cleaners.

Today marks the 12th anniversary of the start of this project. Initially just meant to hone my pipe cleaner crafting skills, what's come to be known as #Project151 has become an effort to make the world of Pokémon feel real while inspiring interest in our own natural world. 🚇🌾

I, and many of my pokémon-enjoying friends, are lucky enough to live in NYC: the greatest city in the world, and a lot more biodiverse than it gets credit for. There might be no better place on the planet to observe the delicate balance of human influence and natural systems- which just so happens to be the theme of the original Pokémon games.💫

It all started 12 years ago with Voltorb: January 18th, 2014. This photoshoot of the original Voltorb from then, alongside its updated version, is from 2023: small updates, fixes, or entirely new figures have been made to prep for the true scope of this endeavor.

There are 150 (or more) to see, and I'm excited to finally share them all with you. This project's evolved nonstop and I think it's become what it was meant to be, just in time for Pokémon's 30th anniversary. Stay tuned, follow @project0151, and stay curious.

The world of dreams and adventure you've hoped for is already out there.
