You did read that right — now let’s loop you in.
Hey! I’m Junior Mendez — a Brooklyn‑based artist turning gay essentials, queer vernacular, and our everyday rituals into a visual universe of code. At the core of this universe is Pepe the Popper — my euphoric mascot — who reminds us that joy isn’t something you chase; it’s already within you. You just have to twist open the cap!
Orbiting him is a full cast of characters celebrating the humor, heart, and vibrancy of queer life. Explore all 66 characters through the accompanying index and immerse yourself in the Junior Mendez Universe!
