Motorbot Likes To Eat Labbits

It seemed like only last week that Kevin “Motorbot” Olson was teasing/tweeting about the best way to make fake sesame seeds. The artist, who has been turning Labbits into turkeys and Dunnys into Peeps for some time, brings his hunger-inspiring art toys to Sacramento’s Dragatomi for a solo show this weekend. The show will include fourteen 5-inch Labbits, one 10-incher and 18 littles customized as lollipops and peppermints.

We’ve got some sneak peeks to whet your appetite, but expect full coverage next week. As I’m in the middle of transcribing our interview with Labbit-creator, Frank Kozik, I thought I’d send him a quick query for his opinion on these re-imagined rabbits. Quoth Kozik: “Customs are the new punk.” Very, very cool.
