About this Series

Inspired by Chinese opera and Japanese Oni masks, Omi takes a traditional form and infuses it with a designer toy aesthetic. Omi's distinct shape comes adorned with unique ears and accessories. Flip Omi upside down or sideways to create a multitude of design possibilities. Omi blurs the line between art and toys. Packaged with a frame and a removable base, collectors can hang Omi on the wall or display it on a shelf. As a 3D hanging art piece, Omi eliminates the clutter of platform toys.
