Your words always seemed to resonate with me as if they were the truest truth I had ever heard.

Provoking repulsion, humor and bewilderment, Chicago-native, Tony Matelli’s hyper-realistic sculp tures undeniabl y speak volumes. Ordinary subject matters introduced into unlikely, often amusing scenarios create a lasting impression, leaving the viewer curiously confused and seeking significance.

Disrupting New York’s art/fashion scene one message at a time.

Brooklyn artist, Henry Mowgli embroiders very real, sometimes difficult-to-swallow declarations onto utilitarian garments. Part art, part poetry, Mowgli’s pieces become an armor of sorts, exposing truths and of fering protection, simultaneously.

not feeling so great? adaptogenic herbs can help‌if you let them.
ashwagandha Stressed? Distracted? Depressed? Ayurvedic power-herb, Ashwagandha has you covered. Belonging to the same family as tomatoes, this adaptogen is restorative and has proven to combat symptoms of anxiety and depression, improve brain-function and stabilize bloodsugar. Win, win, win.
astragalus A member of the legume family, Astragalus is a borderline magic adaptogenic root that has been utilized in Chinese medicine for thousands of years.
This immune-
boosting antioxidant has been said to contain anti-aging properties, relieve cold/ flu symptoms and boost energy. reishi This mushroom defends against infections, viruses and
herbs & stuff
allergy symptoms. If that’s not enough of a reason to give it a try, the mushroom has properties that improve liver detoxification (how many drinks did you actually have last night?) and balance out-of-whack hormones. Bonus points: it also comes in the form of a killer coffee-like substitute that tastes amazing.

If your immune system needs a bit of a boost, enter Reishi.
