For an art event, the mascot can itself become a visual creation. It is made to measure, following the world of the venue or the artist.
Why have a mascot for an art event?
A private view, a street theatre festival or a painting workshop attracts an audience attentive to shapes and colours. A mascot designed for the occasion extends the world of the exhibition or the company, and lends itself to staging: silent wandering, a sketch, a performance. It also gives artists a lasting costume they can develop, instead of recreating a short-lived outfit every year.
Tips for an art audience
- Work on the character with the artist or the artistic director, so that shapes, materials and colours suit the visual world.
- Rely on slow, expressive gestures: the wearer's body can tell a story without a word, with a little rehearsal.
- Avoid overloading the scene: a single well-placed character attracts more than a group competing for attention.
- Have the wearer guided in exhibition rooms, where works, plinths and cables call for great care.
Customising the event mascot
The mascot is made to measure. On the product page, you choose the colours, the logo or text and the accessories. A 2D sketch and an approval proof are available before manufacture, which leaves room for approval by the artist.
Frequently asked questions
Can we have a character drawn by an artist made?
Yes, attach the drawing or references to your request. The 2D sketch lets you check how faithful the result is before manufacture. This lets you stay true to the drawing with no nasty surprise on delivery.
Can the mascot enter an exhibition room?
It depends on the venue and the works. Arrange for a companion and ask management for agreement, as the head reduces the wearer's vision. This protects the works and ensures safe movement for the wearer.
