Offi has teamed up with T-shirt printer, Creative Origins, to bring a collection of pillows with Graphics designed by Michael Roman. While we haven't met Michael personally, one of our neighbors, Jennifer "The Duke" Harpending found the pillows and brought in pictures of her apartment in Brooklyn from the 80's where Michael had painted up the walls for her Halloween party that year. Sometimes we miss all the fun. Fortunately we still connected with the designs and the designer. Born and raised in greater Los Angeles, Michael Roman moved to New York's lower east side in the mid-70's. Working as an aspiring artist / bike messenger, Michael frequently delivered packages and hung out at Andy Warhol's labs in Manhattan. There, he received a great deal of inspiration to what would become his life work of stencil / screen art, combining Warhol techniques with old-Mexico methods and ancient images, which has become known as "Latinissmo".
