*** NB: AUCTION WILL RUN FROM 27 JULY - 10 AUGUST ***

MUTI MONSTER is one of five Zoo City art toys being auctioned for charity.

(scroll down for links to the other Bares)

THE ILLUSTRATOR:

Joey Hi-Fi is the alterego of illustrator & designer, D. Halvorsen. Operating from his secret underground lair in Cape Town, he enjoys working on a variety of projects from book covers to logos, comics, t-shirts and packaging for the likes of New Statesman, Angry Robot, Bizarre Magazine, Hilfiger Denim, ENI, FHM, and Wired Magazine UK. He has just completed the cover illustration/design for the Zoo City novel.

 

THE TOY

Inspired by Lauren Beukes' new novel, Zoo City, the Zoo City Bares are very limited edition vinyl blanks, donated by the Cape Town-based am i collective and decorated by some of South Africa's leading illustrators. The Bares are 40cm / 16 inches tall (see scale reference) and individually customised.

THE CAUSE:

All proceeds from the sale of The Bares will go to The Suitcase Project which helps refugee children from war-torn African countries that have arrived in Johannesburg without parents, friends or family. The Suitcase Project tries to help them deal with the trauma of their flight and arriving in a strange, sometimes hostile adoptive country.


THE BOOK:

Zoo City is a juju noir about an unfamilar Johannesburg full of familiars, crime, refugees, magic and damaged people, the astonishing second novel from the author of Moxyland.
