Powerful ancient gods and contemporary musical forces mix it up in the new Shadow Serpent 8-inch Dunny by Marka27, blending an iconic platform with Marka’s popular mini-god aesthetic.  Bright green and adorned with slithering serpents and native markings, Shadow Serpent bears 3 decorative mini-speakers sculpted into the head, and a printed speaker on both the back and belly. The serpent influence comes from Marka’s Mexican heritage, pulling inspiration from the ancient god Quetzalcoatl, a feathered serpent deity worshipped by the Mayans, Aztecs and other indigenous cultures.

The chase (1 in 6) is an equally stunning black, with white and pink graphics. Limited to 1,500 pieces worldwide.  Check out the Shadow Serpent Dunny on our new online store!

Brain injury association of MN
-We did it! Through your support and effort, 100,000 origami cranes have been folded; one for each person in Minnesota living with a disability due to brain injury thank you for being part of Cranestorm-Wishes in Flight over the past year. We appreciate all you have done including folding and stringing cranes, inviting friends and family to participate, educating others through the project and helping to make an often invisible disability visible. This project would not have been possible without you.

Through Cranestorm, many people shared their stories of how brain injury impacted their life. During open houses in Minneapolis and elsewhere in the state, people sat elbow to elbow transforming paper into beautiful cranes. This act acknowledges the transformation brain injury brings to each person’s life and triumph of the human spirit to live an engaged and purposeful life despite the obstacles brain injury presents.

Come and see the installation of all 100,000 cranes at CreateAbility, May 20 through 22 during Art-A-Whirl in Northeast Minneapolis, This installation will continue to educate our communities on the impact of brain injury.
