BATS

Bat art. Purchased as part of Project 4 Awesome 2022. My first perk. Created by Taylor Behnke, and powered by Gatorade. It’s a lino print with a diagonal peach to deep lavender gradient and happy little bats. It’s so cute look at the little baby bats AGH.

Bat Art by Taylor Behnke

This has a close connection to the beginning of my journey into [[Linguistics]]. At the start of this year (2022), I watched Crash Course Linguistics, hosted by Taylor Behnke, to get a taste of linguistics before my uni semester started. This year, I took my first linguistics course at uni, which I just barely missed the intake for last year. When the 2022 P4A rolled around, I tuned in, and it just so happened that Taylor Behnke was hosting a few hours of the stream. The event also closely coincided with me starting my linguistics course. So, what better way to spend my money than to support a charity event that excites me than buying a piece of art which also commemorates a turning point in my linguistics journey?

Fruit stickers

Lots of brightly-coloured fruit stickers scattered on a white background.

Collection of fruit stickers by Kelly Angood, via Bon Appetit.

I can’t remember why it came up, but I remembered that fruit labels are cool. Here are links, roughly in order of discovery:

  • Bon Appetit article, Fruit Stickers Are Better Art Than Anything Andy Warhol Ever Did at bonappetit.com
  • @fruit_stickers Instagram page at instagram.com (subject of the BA article)
  • The delightful history of fruit stickers, the world’s tiniest canvases for graphic design at fastcompany.com, on a 2022 exhibition titled Frutas de Diseño (Design Fruits) by Spanish design studio El Vivero.
  • I’d like to show you my fruit sticker collection. at v2.desandro.com
  • Blog post, Roxane Loves Fruit Stickers at alphabettes.org
  • Laurence Collection of Fruit stickers at mestrucsamoi.fr, en français or in English for boring people. This collection is absolutely bonkers and I love it. I wish @fruit_stickers had a catalogue this robust.
