BOOK: PP PAPER DESIGNER TOY, PAPER POSSIBLE

Introduction

 

No, Shins' work has not much to do with origami, but rather with plastic toy characters. When coming up with this idea, he was more into the idea of finding a way to produce

his own characters - by himself and as cheap as possible. Getting a plastic toy produced and getting it into the shops is a costy and commerecial thing, where as creating and

publishing paper toys is free. He is also very much into the idea of getting other artists to create designs for his toys which works perfectly and everyone seems to enjoy

collaborating.

Interview digest above can have a clear outlook to the PP Paper Toys’spirit which are similar to Vinyl Toy not much to do with origami, as cheap as possible , as creating and publish paper toys for free, everyone seems to enjoy colloborating.

 

PP take us on a trip from curiosity to fantasy. We did make some mistakes when initial the PP project, however, every problem as an opportunity. Each moment is the great challenge, the best thing that ever happened to us . The more difficult the problem, the greater the challenge in working it out. Life is a course for trial and error. Thru the project we do enjoy the oddessy with varied artists around the world. It is surprising us 100+ artists do us favor to participate PP Paper Designer Toy Project in last six months. Their kindness and efforts make this book for real and printed. Thank them for everything.
