Atsuhiko Misawa ANIMALS Lion Gold Soft Vinyl Finished Product.

About the productJapanese

The KAIYODO ART PROJECT turns artists' works into figurines that people can enjoy up close. From sculptor Atsuhiko Misawa's popular work "ANIMALS," a lion that is often used as the main visual in many art exhibitions, will be released as a completed soft vinyl figure.

The original work was a life-size wooden statue carved from a block of camphor tree. It has a powerful and imposing presence with its upright body, but at the same time, its uniquely soft and deformed style gives it a familiar appearance. The shape of the figure was confirmed by Misawa and the Kaiyodo sculptor from the very basic stages of modeling. Rather than simply copying the original work, the figure was created under Misawa's supervision, with appropriate adjustments made to the figure's size of approximately 16cm in height to match how it appears to the naked eye, from the overall balance to the lines of the mane and the chisel marks in the wood carving.

The coloring was also supervised by Misawa himself, and the final product was created through repeated prototypes and revisions based on the image he himself conveyed. Enjoy the vivid lion with two different types of coloring.

A tag with a serial number is included. Each item will be delivered in limited quantities.

Gold Ver.
The striking gold mane color was decided upon after much discussion with Misawa. The pearlescent paint on the white fur has a stronger shine, and the colors of the bright silver whites of the eyes, ears, nose, claws, paw pads and other details on the body have been adjusted to achieve a more vivid and balanced look.
