Tokidoki Porcino Vinyl Figure
(A) Simone Legno
The cactus is a sign of protection. Kids are naïve and vulnerable and need protection. A monster into a cactus suit would not have made much sense in my vision of things. Sandy and her friends zip themselves into cactus suits because they think the world is a cold and scary place, and they need som armore to face it. The cactus is the conserver of water, and water means life. The Cactus Friends for me are the representation of life, of being fragile and strong at the same time - and pure like water. Created by Italian designer Simone Legno, Porcino is one of his popular tokidoki characters.
