Commissioned sneaker-built sculptural masks
Turn a pair of sneakers into a one-off sculptural mask.
Freehand Profit / Gary Lockwood
Gary Lockwood, working as Freehand Profit, dismantles sneakers and recomposes their materials into elaborate sculptural masks. His current commission page explicitly reopens custom orders, with individual concepts and one-off shoe combinations rather than identical reproductions. This is a commissioned art object for a distinctive personal gift or collection, not an event entertainer.
Current location note / listed area: Virginia; custom artwork commissions, with delivery arranged directly
There is a waiting list and public rush service is unavailable; confirm acceptance, shoe choice, wearable versus display use, lead time, terms and shipping. Gas-mask-like shapes are artwork, not protective equipment. No wedding service or brand endorsement is claimed. The exhibit page describes November–December 2026 in the past tense despite the October review date; those dates are not treated as a reliable current calendar.

Current owned About explicitly calls Gary Lockwood a Virginia-based artist. Fresh ordinary HTML confirms this wording alongside the reopened commission invitation. Historical Los Angeles residence and a Maryland exhibition do not establish additional operating bases.
