Collection: Payasos 🤡
Loud, painted, and impossible to ignore—los payasos live between laughter and loneliness, camp and cultura. This collection draws from the iconic and the underground: Borofsky’s towering ballerina clown, Cindy Sherman’s Clown series of self-portraits, Emmet Kelley’s sad-eyed mime Woeful Willie, LA’s streetwise fundraising payasos, and the beloved TV clown Cepillín—a staple in so many Latinx homes. Add in a splash of Dusti Cunningham’s sexy queer clown portraits, and you’ve got clowns that flirt, haunt, and hold space.
👠 It’s nostalgia in drag.
👜 It’s performance art on a tote bag.
❤️🔥 It’s puro corazón behind the face paint.
