How I Turned My Boring Toilet Into A Magical Place

ADVERTISEMENT

I am Roza, a designer for “Shovava”, my personal clothing line based on my drawings. I wanted to share a little project of mine I’ve been working on utilizing all those drawings and sketches I did for Shovava scarves. Over time I have gathered so many of them that they were barely fitting under my bed. So I decided to put them to use!

I started with transforming my toilet. Deciding not to overthink it, I just glued bits and pieces all over the place. After its’ been glued on, I “connected” the drawings with more drawings on top. The hardest part was dealing with constantly bubbling paper and varnish that would smudge the ink (oh the horror!). But after drawings were sealed, it was easy to fix them and keep on layering that varnish.

In the end, It was a joyful affair and hopefully this little, but the important room is more fun now. Hope you like!

    As a visual artist, Roza has always drawn most of her inspiration from the natural world around her. The mountainous backdrop of Kazakhstan, where she was raised until the age of 13, has had a significant impact upon her work. In 2010 Roza journeyed to Australia in the hope of finding adventure and natural wonders with which to inform her work.

    Love it..! Funny I should come across this by pure accident as I'm about to illustrate in my little loo too! I never thought of using already prepared illustration and then working on top, maybe I should but I hear you about the smudging issues. I plan to use marker pens just in black and originally to freehand doodle but I'm loving the figurative pieces in as extra interest like the birds etc. Thanks for sharing. I'm now rejigging my own thoughts on my own little space. <3

    I admired your work while taking a giant dump. It was doubly beautiful.

    Wow! As someone who spends a lot of time in the bathroom due to an autoimmune disease known as Crohn's Disease, this is something I'd love to do one day.

    Weird that you wouldn't have removed the step stool before taking the picture. Other than that it looks great.

    I'm just going to be the immature one and say I see penises everywhere. Pretty penises.

    Parts of the drawing (coming out the back of the toilet) look like a bunch of d***s. How appropriate.
