# Monsters As Art Berlin Based Artist MyMo Hits East London Gallery By TrendHead | Published 2009-05-15 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monsters-as-art-berlin-based-artist-mymo-hits-east-london-gallery References: [woostercollective](http://www.woostercollective.com/2009/05/mymo_tonight_at_pure_evil_gallery_in_lon.html) & [gallery.me](http://gallery.me.com/pureevil#100405) Monsters on walls, monsters on cans, paper bags, cardboard… on anything. Welcome to the world of German artist MyMo. The young Berlin-based [monster artist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/labubu) loves to draw doodles and make monsters on junk, which she arranges in a collage-universe around her. Her first [solo show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-shape-of-play) in the UK entitled ‘Junkyard’ opens today at the Pure Evil Gallery in East London. I love MyMo's naive and kidlike approach to drawing which makes a stunning collage monster world for you to go monster hunting in. The fun video is from a previous show where visitors could shoot a monster freak. That looks super cool.
