For artist Juno Mak’s Chapel of Dawn, this latest release of products on Saturday, November 24th marks over three years of careful preparation and planning. A recent interview provides readers with the insights behind his brand. This first release of clothing includes four different t-shirts, Hotdog, Skull, The Elf and the Bat. The Hot Dog design incorporates Juno’s affection for B movies as it is inspired by Rob Zombie’s House of 1000 Corpses, the Skull print was masterminded by artist Eric Elms and features two tongues protruding from the eye sockets holding a cross and hotdog at each extremity. The Elf print is derived from Chapel of Dawn’s mascot, one half of the Wrestling Elves. The final Bat design includes an Eric Elm designed logo with Juno’s preferred "chubby font" and glitter effect. A further Chapel of Dawn characteristic is slight distressing at the edges of each shirt.
The whole Chapel of Dawn experience is further compounded with each t-shirt being packaged with special printed tissue paper and baby blue dust bag.
Aside from the release of these t-shirts, a series of tote bags and the James Jarvis designed Wrestling Elves toy (based on the characters seen on the Chapel of Dawn CD cover).
Only a few select stores around the world will run this first collection of Chapel of Dawn. They include SiLLY THING (Hong Kong), Supply (Sydney), Someday (Melbourne), Union, Hideout Store (London), Colette (Paris), Firmament (Berlin) and Sold Out.
