SPIKE

AGUs are watercolor figures that come to life after they are illustrated by hand, transferred and then digitally printed. Each illustration has her/his life story and each Muca bag has its own Agu but since they are velcroed, it is up to you to decide which Agu you want to carry around with you.

• Patented illustration printed on white faux leather / hand-sewn grey Velcro on the back
• running stitch used
• 7 cm dia
• Illustrated by Deniz Arpacı

Care Instructions
Wipe clean with a damp cloth and never wash it. Your Agu requires special care and attention to have a long life.

Spike was born in 2005 in Alaska, on a freezing day of March and is therefore Aries. Even though Spike does not believe in astrology, he thinks that the zodiac may be the source of his ambitious personality and his steady stand against life. Spike was raised by his grandmother Margot who gave him all the love he needed. They used to hold hands while sleeping on the water surface to avoid drifting apart, so it is no suprise that Spike was extremely attached to Margot. Most of his childhood was spent helping her cook in the kitchen. When she passed, Spike moved to Los Angeles, California. Here, Spike opened Buz, a restaurant specilizing in sea food and within only two years, his name began getting mentioned among the top chefs of the city. He explains the secret to his success by saying:

“You have to start at the beginning and learn the foundation. Think about theater, when the curtain opens, if 15 people are seamlessly working in the kitchen in harmony, that is rewarding.” Buz will receive its second Michelin star this year.
