Eric NiketrexifrontEric Niketrexiback

I got the opportunity to design a 10" Trexi as part of the Nike collaborative of designers. Staying under a Nike theme, i chose to make the Trexi, Nike Considered. The head is a solid piece of bamboo and the little fella "grass flocked." See event description below.



Play Imaginative and Toy Qube are proudly presenting “trexi invades nyc”, an exhibition that will feature the work of more than 70 artists and designers with backgrounds in fine art, graffiti, illustration and graphic design. In a unique exhibition of customized 10" trexi toys held at Toy Qube NYC, Play Imaginative will celebrate the launch of the 10" trexi toy figures.

Among the artists and designers who will participate are world-famous graffiti/street artists like NYC LASE, Dizmology, Too Fly and YOK; illustrators, Gary Baseman, Cameron Tiede and KOA; toy designers Tim Tsui, Brothersfree and Patrick Ma; graphic artists including No Pattern and Aobavision; fashion designer Jenna Rivers of SVSV and sneaker designer Jason Bass. Design studio contributors include artists from NIKE Brand, Thunderdog Studios and The KDU; also including recording artists like Lupe Fiasco and Mel of Taiwanese Hip Hop super group, MACHI. And many more.
