Smiles & Smirks

Art with a measure of humour is required by Walmarth Corporation for its chain of supermarkets, located in the Queendom of Retailia and in Cascadia Artpost. Through this collaboration Cascadia Artpost and Mail Art Martha are continuing to give impulse to Trashpo, the artistic vision of Diane Keys.

‘Walmarth Corporation is an entertaining and witty parody of corporate, consumer culture. Cascadia Artpost’s painstaking realization of Mail Art Martha’s ideas through detailed, special effects style models makes Walmarth Corporation one of the crowning achievements of Trashpo in the half-decade that it has been producing a large quantity of art.’

In addition to Trashpo the Corporation has now expanded to include political satire, parody, comics, caricature and witty playfulness.
Your contribution is needed to fill the shelves.

Thank you Sabrina por clarifying a point of law. Snap buttons are required by law in Retailia in all garments, except in straightjackets.

Snap buttons, Diane. Because nobody has time for this inconvenient regular buttons when your work collegues ask you spontaneous for a "short talk".

I dont know Diana, we have to ask the designer, Sabrina.

Love this ensemble. Does the blazer have a tear away feature or does it have to be taken off manually?

New trashion for 2020-2021! Thank you  Sabrina. 
This seasonal outfit with pre-worn holes and techy adaptations is only available in Walmarth. One size fits all.

Thanks Mel Anie and Jack in Cascadia and Michael and Fleur and Sabrina!

It is no surprise Corona beer is selling well with all the free advertising they get.

I tried to buy the beer but I couldn't, so I faked it and then canned my idea. Should have gone to Walmarth.
