Bears Who Care (2020)

Bears Who Care (BWC) is a soft sculpture based project built on a craving for care and human negligence, as a physical and honest symbol of repair (in the literal and metaphorical sense). Via repair BWC immortalises disregarded soft toys, inverting, scorching, and modifying them into soft sculptural aretfacts. I view the root for repair starts foundations up, thus the sales of this phase of bears goes to The Ministry of Stories (MoS). 60% of the wholesale prices goes to the MoS, which is a creative writing and mentoring centre in East London for 8-18 year olds. The current bears released are being stocked in Fantastic Toiles (London) and Store Kathleen (LA). The project has been introduced in 2020 and will continue to expand following.
