neighbourhood

“Neighbourhood” was designed by Rinzen and published by Victionary (Australia/Germany) uniting artists from around the world in “spontaneous collaborative toy remixing project”. The idea was to start from a simple cloth toy and by sending it to different artists that would add a bit of their love and personality to the toy by painting, stitching and drawing on it; and that way produce a material object representing friendliness and collective unity. The toy was photographed after each artist added something to it and the book became a record of the process of creation and personality development.
Simple, but as friendly as the idea of the book itself, the book cover has stitchings of all the countries the toy been to.

That is such a unique and clever idea. I love the way everyone adds their own personality and ideas to the toy so at the end the toy is finished through a group effort.

I would love to have a look at this book, and i would also love to see the cover which is made out of fabric and other materials.

Such a great idea to emphasize unity.
