Lord Ganesh Psychedelic Moodmat
A four-armed Ganesha rendered in Indian truck art color and psychedelic detail by Chris Dyer, screen printed on recycled rubber in New Jersey.
The Print
A Shrine You Can Set a Rig On
Ganesha sits in lotus at the center on a stepped gold plinth, four arms out, crowned, with a third eye and a pair of eyes worked into the fan of each ear. The upper hands hold a goad with a flame at the tip and a coiled noose. The lower hands hold an open palm and a bowl of sweets. Behind him a rainbow arch bands out in yellow, green, blue, red and pink against a dark cosmic field, and the whole figure is picked out in fine gold linework over saturated color.
The frame is where it gets specific. Two pillars run floor to ceiling in orange, white and green diagonal stripes. Winged creatures perch in the top corners. HORN is lettered top left and PLEASE top right, which is the phrase painted across the tailgate of half the trucks on an Indian highway. Devanagari for peace sits on both sides at mid-height, Om marks anchor three corners, and cannabis leaves are tucked into the border pattern where flowers would normally go.
It is the densest print in the whole Moodmat catalog we carry, and it reads completely differently across a room than it does from two feet away. On the wall it is a mandala. On the table it is a hundred separate decisions you can trace one at a time.
Designed By
Chris Dyer, Positive Creations
Dyer works under Positive Creations and signs this one right on the front, hand lettered into the base of the throne. His whole lane is exactly this: spiritual iconography pushed into saturated psychedelic color with more detail than the surface has any business holding. If the style looks familiar it is because it has been on a lot of skate decks and festival walls.

Photos only get you so far. This is the actual piece, shot in our hands, so you can see the scale, the finish and how it behaves in real light before you buy it.
Made in New Jersey Since 2009
Rubber That Already Had a First Life
Moodmats started with scraps from old wetsuits and discarded scuba and surf neoprene, material that was headed straight for a landfill. That became Lava Rubber, and Lava Rubber is what every Moodmat is cut from. The feedstock now comes from wetsuits, gaskets, weatherstripping, seat molds, and other clean scrap that gets collected or donated. More than two tons of it moves through the New Jersey shop every month, gets pressed into sheet stock, then die-cut and screen printed. Keeping that material out of the ground has been the point from day one.
Closed-Cell Neoprene
Closed-cell rubber does not drink up what you spill on it. Water, reclaim, and terp splash sit on the surface instead of soaking in, so a wipe with soapy water puts it back to new.
It Stays Put
The rubber grips whatever it is sitting on and grips whatever you set on top. A rig that would skate across a glass table or a finished desk stops moving the second it lands on a Moodmat.
Tough and Self-Extinguishing
Heat resistant, self-extinguishing, and built out of material that already survived a first life. This is not a printed coaster that curls after a month on the table.
Where People Actually Put These
It Does Not Have to Hold a Rig
A Moodmat protects a surface and grips what sits on it. Whether that thing is a banger, a camera, or nothing at all is up to you. They are called Moodmats for a reason. Pick the one that matches how you feel and put it wherever it belongs.
Rig and Glass Pad
The job it was built for. Keeps glass off hard surfaces and keeps hard surfaces off your glass.
Display Surface
Figures, models, controllers, dice, cameras, watches. Anything worth setting on something intentional.
Wall Art
Plenty of these never touch a table. Hang it, frame it, or pin it behind the setup and let the print do the work.
Desk and Everyday
Trivet for hot pans, landing spot for keys, pad under a pet bowl, cushion on a camp table.
Why It Matters
Runs End. Prints Do Not Come Back.
Moodmats print in runs, and runs end. Once a design is out, it is out. Artist collabs and drop exclusives regularly land in quantities of ten to twenty five pieces, which is why the people who collect these track drops, trade them, and frame the ones they will never put a rig on. If this specific print matters to you, the time to grab it is while it is still on the shelf.
Signed Work, Not a Stock Graphic
This is a Chris Dyer painting reproduced on rubber, signature at the base of the throne included. Moodmats rotates artist collaborations in and out, and when one ends the print goes with it. No run number is printed on this design, so we are not claiming a count. What we can tell you is that we have one.
No Reprints
Moodmats does not go back and run a sold-out design again. When this one is gone from our shelf and theirs, the only way to get it is from somebody who already has one.
Worth Hanging
A print this limited does not have to earn its keep under a rig. Plenty of these end up on a wall, in a frame, or stacked with the rest of a collection.

Wipe it down with warm water and a little dish soap, then let it air dry flat. That is the whole routine. Do not run it through a washing machine or a dryer, do not scrub the print with an abrasive pad, and do not rest a lit torch or a glowing-hot banger directly on the surface. Use a stand or a puck for anything still at temperature.
Straight Talk
Know Before You Buy
Upcycled Means Variation
The rubber is reclaimed scrap, so base color, speckle, and surface texture shift slightly from sheet to sheet. Two mats of the same design will not be photocopies of each other. That is how you know it is the real material and not virgin stock.
Heat Resistant, Not Heatproof
The rubber is self-extinguishing and handles warm gear without complaint. It is not a torch pad. Park anything still glowing on a proper stand or a quartz puck, not on the print.
No UV on This One
Standard ink, full color, no reactive application. A blacklight does nothing to it. Plenty of Moodmats do glow, this print is not one of them, and we would rather say so than have you plug in a lamp and wonder.
Fine Linework on a Textured Surface
The rubber has a speckled, slightly rough face, and this design has more fine gold linework than any other print we stock. It comes through, but it sits on texture rather than on smooth paper. Up close it reads like embroidery, not like a poster.
This Is the Exact Mat You Get
One of these exists at this shop. The photo is of the actual piece in hand, down to the speckle in the rubber, so what you see is what ships.
