Sonny & Biddy is Sonny Day & Biddy Maroney. They worked from 2006 - 2023 under the name “WBYK” or “Webuyyourkids”.
Their work is a conversation between two individuals played out in colour, shape, texture and drawing from their shared influences – comic books, skateboarding, music and film.
Sonny & Biddy worked and exhibited individually when they met in 2001. They began combining their talents in 2006, creating screen-printed posters for Popfrenzy tours on their living room floor, and have been working as a team ever since. Today they work for clients big and small around the world.
Since 2012 they have created many sold-out licensed film posters for Cinema / Pop-culture powerhouse Mondo, including two solo exhibitions in the company's Austin Texas gallery.
They've also had solo exhibitions in Monster Children, Mart and MTV Galleries in Sydney and Lamington Drive in Melbourne, as well as contributing to many group exhibitions across the globe. Sonny conducts kids (and occasionally adult) workshops, designing and painting skateboard graphics. He is also commissioned regularly to paint murals and exhibits in solo mode as often as he can. In 2016 he curated Ludlow Creative Space in Orange, NSW.
They have made public appearances speaking at design conferences including AGIdeas (2010) Semi-Permanent Sydney (2011) and Brisbane (2011), Analogue Digital Sunshine Coast (2012) and Brisbane (2014), Vivid (2011), BigSound (2013) and Field Trip (2013).
These are their favourite quotes about themselves:
“Harsh Majical”…. “Fresh as Fish In Restaurant” ~ Computer Arts Magazine
“An unstoppable force of darkness” ~ Jeremy Wortsman, Director, The Jacky Winter Group
“If you don’t like the work of WBYK, then to paraphrase from Lux Interior, “you’re a turd.”” ~ Rob Jones, Creative Director, Mondo
