Description
For IB Studio Art I made a set on nine toys based on the animal spirits of different Native American cultures. Each animal's design is based on traditional art forms and myths from cultures it is strongly associated. Like some sort of weird education toy for the children of nerds? I have no idea about my thinking process behind all this, honestly.
Rabbit is the main Cherokee trickster and is based on all Cherokee stuff--crafts like beaded bags and wooden animal masks. He's also covered in tar, a reference to the tar baby story (which was a Cherokee myth that turned into a Bre'r Rabbit/Uncle Remus story later). But he seems awful happy about it.
Sculpey clay, acrylic paint, 3" tall ish
