CYBERSPACE — Rolik, a newly launched adult retail site, has rolled out its first artist collaboration with a capsule collection by Instagram artist Cute Brute.
The collection currently includes T-shirts, sweatshirts, tote bags and a hat that showcase the artist’s quirky designs.
The Brooklyn-based Cute Brute is an illustrator and toy designer whose work mixes "a colorful blend of cute critters, irreverent humor and queer iconography,” a rep said. “This juxtaposition of the sexy with the bizarre often pulls inspiration from retro toys, gay pinup magazines and the occult."
Devin Guinn, Rolik’s founder, saw parallels between his website aesthetic and Cute Brute — “fun, cute and sexy,” he said. “It’s why we asked them to create our logo."
Visit the collection online and follow Rolik on Twitter with the hashtag #cutebruteloot.

Rolik was founded in 2017 by Guinn, a former buyer and merchandiser for Fab.com and StackCommerce, and offers “a safe space to discover and shop for sexual wellness products that is open to all,” a rep said, noting that one-percent of every purchase is donated to 10 nonprofits evenly “with no caps or end date.”
