DÜPP¥ is my alias art name and this was my first independent DUPPY Art Show, hosted by Burton Snowboards at their Flagship Soho New York City Store. After years of having a great relationship with Burton Snowboards, I introduced the idea to Burton to have an evening to display and sell my art. They responded wholeheartedly and there could not have been a better crew of people with which to work 😊 . Creating customized artistic apparel via painting, I designed T-Shirts, hats, tote bags, and shoes. Every T-shirt, hat, pair of shoes and tote bag was a specially and custom made art piece which was being sold to whomever participated in the evening’s festivities.  

Additionally, Burton supplied me with Anon snowboarding helmets. In return, I painted on the helmets (“Duppy’d” them!) which were then raffled off for ‘The Chill Foundation”, a charitable organization which inspires youth to overcome challenges through boardsports. This event was produced by myself and a small team, gaining sponsorships to contribute to the evening such as Montauk Brew Co., AriZona Iced Tea, Williamsburg Pizza, To The Moon Cannabis and Sail Away Coffee. 

Branding & Commercial Visual Concepting

DÜPP¥ is my alias art tag and signature. Being a brand ambassador for Ka’chava, a company passionate about nutrient-rich superfoods, was only natural for me. It was amazing to combine things I love; a health conscious organic super food, surfing, creative direction in the marketing world and my personal artwork.  

Thank you again, Ka’chava, for the support and keeping my belly full all summer 😇️. It was a two man production, shout out to Drew Maloney who directed and edited the project. It was great to creatively brainstorm with him on the commercial’s concept. I will let the video do the rest and further explain this project! 

Collaboration with a SOHO coffee brand and my personal art

Role: Artist

DÜPP¥ is my alias art signature. I was approached with the idea of a collaboration with “Have A Nice Day Coffee,” an indie coffee company based in SOHO, NYC. The “DÜPP¥ DRiP” is a Costa Rican coffee blend inspired by my adventures in that amazing country. The launch event was hosted by Mr. Purple, a Gerber Group rooftop bar in the Lower East Side of NYC.  

Additionally, my artwork will hang on Mr. Purple’s walls throughout the 2023 New Year. These works are aesthetically and fundamentally inspired by the concept of coffee dripping and are a skewed representation of NYC's caffeinated creatures. Please view more DÜPP¥ art HERE.
