Heartware Store and Gallery

Warning: this one might not be for the prudes, but you’re welcomed anyway. Step into Taiwanese illustrator Ikuiku Studio’s vibrant and raunchy world at Heartware Store & Gallery’s The Ikuiku Love Hotel. Presented through risograph prints, the playful exhibition reimagines lust and intimate acts using adorable animal characters and bright colours. The result is a cheeky, hilarious and light-hearted approach to an often-thought taboo topic. Her artworks are guaranteed to make you giggle or blush – or maybe both. As part of the showcase, the gallery has also transformed its space into a love hotel of sorts, complete with a shower room and queen-sized bed (you’re allowed to sprawl on the latter, but a reminder to keep it, um, PG). Oh, and before you leave, don’t forget to cop yourself a custom condom blind box, alongside other love hotel-inspired merch, such as hotel key chains, towels, bar soap, hotel slippers and even a memopad. Ikuiku Studio is also debuting new zines at the exhibition as well.
