"Bones" is my piece for Project QiQi.
Chris Alexander of Creo Design is showcasing around 35 international artists interpretations of Ziqi Wu's original toy at ToyconUK next year in April.
I loved working on this toy, it's sculptural form gave me endless ideas, but I had to pick one! I reinterpreted the little shape on the top of Ziqi Wu's original design as the tip of a bone, and cut it away to create a housing for a full length resin shaped bone pendant/necklace, which is worn on an oxidised silver chain and and stows away in the figure's head at the end of the day.
Below is the film I made to illustrate how it functions. My brother-in-law Peter Lockhart AKA Mindflare produced the music that themes Bones.
