FW GALLERY | SOLO SERIES
⚫⚪️ by Iñigo Bilbao
Last Wednesday Fakewhale unveiled “Crikey!”, a Fakewhale Solo Series release by Iñigo Bilbao.
In “Crikey!” Bilbao deliberately throws an iconic mouse into the algorithm’s flux, where it is repeatedly deconstructed and reformed, rebirthing this character to confront the unpredictable nature of digital creation—a process likened to childlike experimentation with the transformation of toys through fire.
Exhibition Highlights

⚪️⚫: 50 editions minted
