Design Description

My design is a homage to one of my favourite artists: René Magritte – I’m a big fan of surreal stuff! It mashes up two of his most famous paintings ‘The Son of Man’- (bloke with an apple in front of his face) and ‘Golconda’ (suit-wearing people falling from the sky). My design is a bit brighter than Magritte’s work, more cartoony and features lots of tiny bowler-hatted Morphs plus one big bowler hat on top!

 

Artist Information

Olaf Falafel is an author, illustrator and a stand-up comedian (which is pretty similar to a stand-up chameleon except he doesn’t change colour to blend in with the background). He’s the winner of The Funniest Joke of the Edinburgh Fringe and has created and performed several stupidly named comedy shows including Olaf Falafel and the Cheese Of Truth. As well as trying to make people laugh on stage, Olaf draws a lot and tries to come up with funny ideas for kids books. He also has an Art Club on Youtube full of real drawing tips and facts about famous artists. In 2019 Olaf visited 100 schools in 100 days – and then put his feet up and had a cup of tea.

Buy a Morph at Auction

When the Trail ends, the super-sized Morph sculptures will be auctioned to raise funds for Whizz Kidz. Whizz Kidz supports young people by providing the wheelchairs, equipment, support and confidence-building experiences they need, and campaigning for a more inclusive society. We hope to raise enough funds in the auction to allow 100 more young wheelchair users across England, Scotland and Wales be mobile, enabled and included.
