| Serato Misery 12" Picture Disk - Artist Series
The latest Serato record in the Artist Series from Serato!
Misery was the alter-ego of New Zealand born artist Tanja Jade, who breathed
her uniquely dark influence into Tanja's art until her exorcism in October
2010.
Tanja adopted the Misery moniker at age 16 when she first took up graffiti
art, and from then Misery grew and grew, becoming a global brand. From humble
beginnings painting tracksides until 4am on school nights, to exhibiting her
works internationally and creating a boutique range of women's clothing, Misery
had a wonderfully wicked life.
Misery's characters were cheeky, whimsical, cute and always dark. Misery
fused childlike wonder and the macabre together in a way that captivated fans
worldwide.
However after 13 years together, Misery's overbearing dark influence led
Tanja to stage a public exorcism, so she could feel free to pursue other
artistic endeavors and send Misery back to Miseryland. An auction of remaining
Misery works and farewell exhibition followed.
This collectable Serato Artist Series picture disc is one of Misery's final
commissions, and commemorates 13 years of her exciting life. Tanja Jade
continues to create art without her longtime companion. RIP Misery (1997 -
2010).
The cool artwork is the same graphic on both sides but in different colors,
one side is a purple color base, the other side is yellow as shown on the
product images above. |
