TenGuDaruma

Art Toys: No refunds or exchanges once the package is opened.

TenGuDaruma is a combination of the words "Tengu" (a monster in Japanese Myth) and "Daruma." The sculpture is named after the iconic Tengu mask and the body of Daruma, both characteristic elements of the designer, TenGuSan. Therefore, the sculpture is named TenGuDaruma - Tengu Daruma. The red spherical body of the figure resembles an egg, which brought to our minds the song "The Egg under the Red Flag" by Cui Jian, the godfather of Chinese rock. This song is Cui Jian's most radical and rebellious work, expressing his genuine inner emotions. It seemingly depicts the confusion, loss, and awakening of the people in the post-open era. The "78" on Tengu Daruma's forehead also corresponds to the historical context of that era. A calligrapher was then commissioned to write a portion of the song's lyrics in cursive script on the Daruma body, in tribute to Mr. Cui Jian. The base of Tengu Daruma features a metal coin with a unique number, signifying the uniqueness of each Tengu Daruma piece.
