Straight outta DC U.S.A is Marly hitting you with this vinyl art collectable Lil Zook! bring his character Lil Zook to life through books, animation, toys, and other merchandise that supporters of all ages can enjoy.
Zook is not just a character, he’s a beacon of hope, a symbol of resilience, and a reminder that no dream is too big and no box is too confining. He is a positive Black Latino street artist. Like myself, he is here to inspire children of color to break boundaries, embrace their uniqueness, and chase after their wildest dreams.
My dream is to create a whole universe of diverse characters, each with their own stories to tell and lessons to teach.
– Marly
