Finders
Creatures, an ongoing, toy-based art project devoted to the
exhilaration of finding treasure, is planning a summer tour to hide
original resin beasties all over the West Coast! Glitter mastermind and
artist Phoenix McNamara is currently running a Kickstarter campaign
to fund a hiding-toys road trip and bring the hunt to new places.
Usually,
to get your paws on one of her pieces, you have to hunt it down
yourself, but for a limited time, you can pre-order your own. You get
your choice of sculpt and color, and each will be numbered and labeled
as part of the Kickstarter edition. Early Bird prices are $19 for one
piece, $35 for two. Regular rewards prices are $27 for one, $45 for two.
There's also a Rainbow Collection of 6 sculpts for $75. If you're
really feeling daring, you can pledge $500 and have a special edition of
20, labelled with your name or handle, specially made and hid IN YOUR
TOWN.
How
do you hunt them? McNamara has created a corresponding free web app
that provides clues, pictures, and a live map; check it out at finderscreatures.com
If
you're the first to find one, it's yours to keep; the only catch is
that players are requested to post photos to the app and report their
treasure as found.
