Story

Jelly Bellies are funky natural humanimal characters existing in a universe where we are each individually unique, but at the primal building blocks, all one. With nature, with other creatures, with eachother.
They celebrate the idea that we humans are animalistic beings made up of the same *stardust* as every other creature, tree and force of nature on this crazy space rock.
Jelly Bellies have always been somewhat ambiguous in their gender and race, removing human ideals of what separates us. From there they are juxtaposed with the animal that is inside all of us, depicting the nature we are made up of, reminding us to stay connected to our primal selves.
With this project you can own your very own humanimal! Minting a Jelly Belly will get you a funky humanoid buddy with mixed animal and nature features encouraging you to tap into your inner creature and live each day expressing the essence of YOU!
Not only that, but you will be helping preserve our beautiful planet for future generations of all creatures to enjoy. We will be donating a portion of each sale (with full transparency) towards conservation relevant to each drop- Land, Sea, Air.

About the Artist

Kfez graduated from Appalachian State University with a BFA in studio arts. Though she enjoys working with many different mediums, she focuses mainly on illustration both digitally and painting with acrylics.
In her art she expresses the idea that we are all one- humans, animals, earth. This is depicted through creatures ranging from human to animals and beyond. Pieces show colorful, funky snapshots of a universe where the lines are blurred, human becomes animal, and animal becomes…well, whatever that is.
A common theme shows humans regressing back to a more primal, natural state, away from the constraints of modern society and back towards who we are at the essence of our being. Becoming the animals we really are. There are also themes of nature vs. technology, the circle of life, and just general silliness.
The Jelly Bellies are a character that developed as Kfez found her soul and style as an artist. And what a journey it was! These funky little beings show up in various forms throughout Kfez’s pieces, though the most original is the naked, ambiguous-gendered chubby guy. These have been interpreted to represent the essence of humans, from there taking on their primal animal form or appearing trapped by the constraints of modern society, unable to balance nature with the technological world we have built.

There will be 2500 Jelly Bellies in each drop, a total of 7500. Each drop will feature completely unique art by Kfez (no repeating body types or assets) and will only be scheduled once the previous drop has sold out.
Drops will be separated into Beings of the Land, Creatures of the Sea, and Animals in the Air.
