February 2022, Milk Mouth and XOXOTackyDayz collaborated in the month long ILY2 Artist Residency in Portland, Oregon. ILY2 is a space that allows artists and makers to have a retail-themed residency. Milk Mouth created an intersection of design, retail, and community engagement by transforming the space into a fun and colorful environment through floral installations, build-your-own bouquets, and gallery-like settings for ceramics and jewelry. As well hosting other artists– like muralist and print maker Chair Boy, along with Reid Austin, visual artist and painter.
