Art collaborative duo, Mookntaka, is exhibiting their first solo show in NYC: Mookntaka’s Friends and Follies! Hosted by The Sweet Lorraine Gallery in Red Hook, the show features playful and colorful artwork, including large, immersive inflatable sculptures.
The show is running until April 27th and available to visit by appointment only – please email Mookntaka@gmail.com to experience the exhibit!

Mookntaka (MOO-kin-tah-kah) is a Brooklyn-based artist duo by Mark Zlotsky and Karyn Lao. It combines their names through the voice of their two-year-old niece: Mook (Uncle Mark) and Taka (Auntie Karyn).

Mark is an artist with an architectural background who infuses design with humor. Karyn is a fiber artist that believes that we are like pompoms — many pieces connected by a common thread. Together, they experiment and produce playful, unusual objects.

Mookntaka personifies the whimsical lens they investigate their surroundings with. It serves as a reminder to find joy in unexpected places and to embrace the silliness and curiosity of our inner child.
