The Thousands

Hello there. Take a seat on the stairs and I’ll tell you a story. Jess Johnson and Dr Kyla McFarlane have made a commemorative project of timely import. “As well as really liking CATS, we share an academic interest in doomsday predictions and associated INTERNET websites.” They have worked with eleven artists to visually extrapolate these universal concerns in the form of a commemorative 2012 calendar (CATS of the Apocalypse).

Contributing artists Tony Garifalakis (13 and Doomsday pictured), Anastasia Klose, Susan Jacobs, COBRA (JPN), Yvonne Todd (NZ), Lou Hubbard, Hannah Tai (Lulu and Hope pictured), The Holy Trinity (TAS, Apocatalypse pictured), Patrick Pound (Found photo pictured), Martin Bell and Lisa Radford have been invited to take part due to their demonstrated love of cats and/or affinity with doom culture.

“Earth’s annihilation will sadly extend to the extinction of our feline friends,” say Jess and Kyla. “As such we think a 2012 CATS calendar commemorating CATS in transformative END-OF-DAYS scenarios would be a fitting send-off for us all.” The calendar has been produced using the finest default calendar template found on the OFFICEWORKS website.
