| Talented Young Pinoys. u knw the brand clothing line Bayo right? their clothes and designs are really really nice especially Bayo Kids. but wats dissapointing is...this.. i found this letter and its quite olrdy being passed around. i'm not enraged or furious about this but its a shame! pfffft. i luv bayo pa naman din. ok so this's d letter.
hello friends,
ang ganda ng bayo kids ano? pati yung mga display ng bayo. kaso, we are
very disappointed to inform you that BAYO has been RIPPING OFF
illustrators from japan for their designs.
and most of these illustrators are artists who contributed to a book
and web compilation from Delicatessen. the title of the book is
MONDOFRAGILE:
MODERN FASHION ILLUSTRATORS FROM JAPAN (available at Powerbooks)
if you check out www.mondofragile.com (plus links to each artists'
sites), you'll see that
1. TADAHIRO UESUGI's untitled artwork for a japanese magazine (top shot
of a girl in a bikini sun bathing)
was traced and used for bayo's summer window displays (with fake grass
background) without him knowing it
2. YUKA MAEDA's black-outlined little girls are on BAYO KIDs shirts,
without her permission
and
3. EMMA.MORI's big-eyed vector girls and animals are used in BAYO's
display ads. the little deer on their tag now? that's EMMA's, not
BAYO's.
i had a talk with a socialite-celeb who was part of BAYO's research
team, who did speculate na hindi nga siguro nag paalam ang BAYO sa mga
Japanese illustrators na ito. they have an artist who traces/copies it
for them.
also, if you check out EMMA.MORI's site (google: BAYO PHILIPPINES EMMA)
you'll see this:
--hi! your illustrations are the cutest i've ever seen! unfortunately,
a clothing brand here in the Philippines named BAYO seems to be using
your drawings
for their children clothing line(t-shirt and bag logos). do they have
your permission?
--hello!! i don't know BAYO...I look BAYO's web. I was very much
surprised.My illustration was being used
without my permission. This is a crime. It it here so that it warns
BAYO soon. thanks!!!
i think early this year pa ito na post.
diba nakakahiya? tapos maglalabas pa ang BAYO ng shirt na: YOUNG
TALENTED FILIPINA, but they ripped off other artists!
it's not an excuse anymore to say na 'di ko alam eh,' 'i didn't know
these were not original.' Come on. we're in a globalized economy. they
have a website. they're an established clothing line. They should have
checked first, it's their responsibility.
and i think it's ours too-to be responsible buyers. especially since
we're artists too. we dont want other people riping off our artwork and
claiming it as theirs so they can sell a few shirts without giving us
the heads up. these corporations should give the artists their due, and
respect.
we have a thing called intellectual property rights, we should protect
it.
alam kong magaganda ang damit sa BAYO, pero for now, please keep out of
their store until they fix this. BAYO was on such a good roll with Leah
Salonga, and now they stoop to this? It's really sad.
Whether you're an artist in the Philippines or Japan, or kahit saan,
dapat magpapaalam muna sayo ang mga gagamit ng works mo.
please pass.
