SiP 3.0 — May 2026
Earlier this year we told you Cinderella had left the building. That the Crew was stepping back to do some hard thinking — about what SiP is, what it's for, and what it deserves to become. You gave us the space to do that. Thank you.
We're done thinking. SiP 3.0 is here. And over the coming weeks and months, you are going to see the changes come to life.
One theme. One book. One exhibition. One Toy Safari (in 2027). And then some. A clearer path for everyone who wants to be part of it.
The theme: Printworthy
Everything in SiP 3.0 orbits one question: is this image good enough to print large and hang on a wall? You can call it going back to our roots.
That is the Printworthy standard. It is not a gate — it is a direction. It changes what you notice when you are shooting. It makes you more deliberate about light, about story, about what the image is actually for.
It is the thread that runs through the workshops, the publication, and our next Toy Safari and exhibition at Vita Magasinet next year. An exhibition worthy to travel the world.
Early summer 2027 · Vita Magasinet, Sweden
The SiP Toy Safari
A curated exhibition. Approximately 20 creatives. Every person who joins the Toy Safari is, by design, included in the show — your commitment earns your place.
Every submitted image carries a story. The setup, the thought before the shutter, the pre-visualisation. Audiences want to see the magic behind the image. We are building that into the process from the start.
Selected images will be printed large. The Printworthy standard, made physical. And every creative will get a print delivered home.
The theme for the exhibition is being decided together — this is something the community shapes. More on that very soon.
A publication later this year
December
SiP Portfolio Three Dot Zero
The Printworthy edition. Reflects those members of the community who showed up for the theme. Includes a teaser for the 2027 exhibition. The beginning of what comes next. An invitation to travel the world.
A clearer structure for belonging
SiP has always had a community. What it lacked at times was a clear path through it. That changes as well.
We are introducing the Eight Cs — a membership structure that names what was always true and makes the path more visible. From discovering SiP for the first time, to being at the creative heart of it, every step has a name and a meaning.
New Patreon tiers — Companion and Craft — open the door to supporting SiP, accessing deeper community spaces, and earning a place in the Toy Safari exhibition. Details on the website shortly.
But we stay true to our open community. If you are an existing member, your badges are your history. They stay. We are not locking us behind a pay wall. Just an opportunity to show your appreciation or dive deeper in your craft.
What we are asking is just your creative energy. That is enough for now.
Monthly Printworthy workshops
Starting now. One virtual workshop per month, practical and focused. Getting printworthy is a craft, and we are going to work on it together. Watch Discord for the first date.
This is Cinderella. This is SiP 3.0. The Crew did the work. Now comes the part we do together.
Stay close. The next few months are going to be worth watching.
The work we're most proud of was never the plan. It was the moment someone printed something, held it up, and said: yes, this.
That's what we're building toward.
