@studiocatherine Not in the slightest! Our printers just require a little extra time.
Ever wondered what to do with all your spare cassette tapes? You have heaps of them right? Donate them to a good cause, such as this!

Artists Statement: Did some work last year for Jung v. Matt am Neckar (German ad agency)… this was a promo for a radio station. I sculpted the cassette into designs by their art director and then sent the tape sculptures to the agency where they were photographed and made uber nice-looking. 2009

Artist Statement: Great start to the year! The cassette case is painted very lightly, so you can still read “Bob Marley and the Wailers : Birth of a Legend” on the case.
