On this episode, we catch up with the Creators behind these masterpieces called Toddlerpillars. Jon and Tim talks to us about the backstory to their creation and much more. Their website is https://toddlerpillars.com
The Toddlerpillars collection is the brainchild of artist and Beinart Gallery owner Jon Beinart and his friend of 15 years, the award-winning graphic novelist and artist, Tim Molloy. These strange adorable creatures evolved from Jon's notorious Toddlerpillar doll sculptures (2002 - 2011), which were published widely in magazines and art books and frequently went viral in the early 2000s.
The Toddlerpillars were an instant hit and a large international community of like minds have congregated around their little friends on discord and Twitter, eagerly anticipating their launch. The community has taken on a creative role by suggesting thousands of traits for the Toddlerpillars. So many of their ideas have been incorporated into the project that they have become more like a hive mind of collaborators than a community of fans.
Jon and Tim have developed a backstory/mythology for the Toddlerpillars, which finds our little friends in a parallel universe that is set to collide with our own. The project has a detailed roadmap which extends way beyond the mint, with a PFP collection of companion creatures, The Chimerapillars, a series of vinyl toys, metaverse integration, gamification, an animated series, token holder meetups in Australia and the USA and much more!
