From the organiser

Step into the vivid and imaginative world of Sonny Day and Biddy Maroney, the Melbourne-based design duo known as We Buy Your Kids (WBYK). Drawing inspiration from zines, album artwork, skate culture and underground comics, WBYK have developed an instantly recognisable visual style that blends pulp, pop and psychedelia in unexpected ways.

This free display traces highlights from their career, from collaborations with musicians including Jack White and Pixies to their influential work shaping the visual identities of Popfrenzy and St. Jerome's Laneway Festival.

The exhibition also showcases WBYK's celebrated partnership with Mondo, the Austin-based publisher renowned for its limited-edition screen prints. Reimagining cult and classic films such as The Shining, An American Werewolf in London, The Lost Boys and The Fly, WBYK move beyond familiar imagery to capture the mood, emotion and lasting impact of these stories through bold, symbolic design.

Displayed throughout the corridors of the NFSA in Canberra, the exhibition features a selection of film posters from the Mondo series alongside concert and festival posters spanning the duo's career. Together, the works reveal the creativity, wit and distinctive visual language that have made WBYK one of Australia's most acclaimed poster design teams.
