3 KEY WORDS that INSPIRE his CREATION




BIRTH Emerged from a liquid matrix, the 怪 [gwaii] catches its first breath at birth. Feeding himself with the oxygen around to carefully grow.

Tenderness gives its beauty and gravity its curves. Each transplant is the memory of a moment of transformation, like the different stages of life.
 

DEATH When it comes to maturity, the 怪 is mummified following ancient Egyptian rituals, wrapped for ever in layers of colored concrete. At the end of the process, the 怪 is ready to find its eternal life somewhere in the outer world.
