  arcade met with Iris de Moüy last year at a mexican theme party she threw in her Parisian flat. Since then we have been receiving "iris news" via her private email list, but instead of words and links she sends expression in the form of a naughty girls, scruffy wavers, or whatever global folk she conjures up in her sketchbook that day.
