Rockin' Jelly Bean's Sunburned Wife printed inside the canopy of an Erostika automatic folding umbrella, a summer pin-up that opens out above you.
The Piece
Rockin' Jelly Bean is the Japanese painter behind Erostika, the Tokyo studio and label through which he releases his posters, prints and objects. His pin-up girls carry the polish of 1960s American pulp covers and the energy of Japanese manga.
Sunburned Wife is one of his poolside scenes: a blonde sunbather in mirrored sunglasses stretched out beside a tennis racket, her skin glowing against a field of warm yellow and peach. The painting is printed on the underside of the canopy and runs round the eight panels of the canopy, so the figure appears whole when the umbrella is open and each panel frames a fresh piece of the composition.
As the name says, this is an automatic folding umbrella, opening and closing at the press of a button in the handle and folding small enough for a bag. It comes new and unused.
