MZ7 - Mobile Zoo 7
An image of now

Choosing materials to create, we’re often drawn in by the idea of personal choice. But in reality, our decisions are to a far extent shaped by what we’ve seen and what’s available. The lines between art, toys, and innovation are now blurred. Such era allows for convergence where design, function, and imagination intertwine. MZ7 is made to play in the dark when sleep evades you. It's mobile and includes a moon flashlight to keep the lights off. An interference between a bear and a lion in the dark. An exploration of the now, where opposites collide— cold and warm, old and new, material and culture interacting. Therefore, their eyes reflect in the light.
