Genus / Toy Design / 2023
Society educates us to find ourselves an identity under a limited number of options
and defines us in the environment sometimes even by a single description.
Genus is a series of 10 different abstract body parts which can make up a variety
number of characters by assembling them one on top of each other.
Questions about self-image, body image, gender identity,
and sexuality are common to every kid of our generation.
My purpose was to take these questions and to “translate” them into shapes and forms.
Each part can function as different areas of the human body
and can make us go out of the social setting.
The idea is to create and imagine an infinite variety of characters without fixed definition.
There’s no right way.
