Bello Cycling Caps x Air Ink

Bello is making a new cycling cap with my art on. And they are printing it with special ink made from traffic pollution particulates. Did you know that dust from tyre wear is a major health risk to humans and a leading source of toxic micro plastics?  Mad huh. There’s a poster with each cap too.

Bello Cycling Says:

“…We offer you the ultimate, one-of-a-kind, unique, world’s first cycling cap: a cap printed with ink harvested from city air pollution!! The more AIR-INK® on your cap, the less pollution in your lungs!! Air pollution is responsible for an estimated 9 million premature deaths worldwide per year.* The good people at Air–Ink®, created ink from air pollution!!! (Instagram: @air.ink ) With the help of third party global accredited labs, they analysed and further segregated the pollution particulates for recycling. The analysis further ensures that the AIR-INK® formulations they resolve to are safe for consumer use.”

The Designer, Jody Barton’s words:

“I just love to breathe! And I’m not much keen on lies and being lied to. There seems to be a lot of hope put on the electric car to somehow absolve the guilt of the motorist. But surely electric cars are saintly? Nope, they still have tyres, and tyres are responsible for a large proportion of all the toxic particulate matter in the air we breathe. So… I drew some crazy carts, with poison intentions, to clear the air on this issue for you. And they are printed using ink made from that pollution. AIR-INK®.” – www.jodybarton.com

Supertime Books & Jody Barton present a brand new Tarot deck with completely new ideas, artwork and metaphors in keeping with the dismal and comic age in which we cower. Laugh, cry and hurl as you utilise these exquisite esoteric fortune telling cards to re-order your own disordered life(style) into something yet more baroque and disassociative. Meet the artist and writer of this romantic deluge Jody Barton, get him to sign your cards, pummel him for insights into the fog you call ‘your life’ and be a good member of society, turning up to awkwardly meet other people with obliquely similar interests. Drinks, salty snacks, maybe a playlist – Jody might even ‘talk’. It’s gonna be a gas.
