Hug me, I’m yours

In April 2014, I exhibited with the Pictoplasma Academy Group Show in Berlin. I developed a character named Pi, which is a little pea that is happy to be alive. I decided to make this character in a way that everyone could hug him and receive a hug back. I worked with an engineer, Pierre Braun, who designed the hugging mechanism.

These are the people who helped me with this project (you should google them, they’re super kewl!):
