The Missing Link Project



This strange monster is part of the PICTOPLASMA'S MISSING LINK PROJECT , an installation of 500 selected monsters that will take place at the gallery La Gaîté Lyrique during the Pictoplasma Festival in Paris

Pictoplasma is a Berlin based festival about contemporary international character design and figurative art. For the first time the festival take place in Paris from December 7 to 31.

I think it will be hard to find my monster among other 500 characters, but it's worth going to see the festival.
Here you will find the program and all information
.

And if you find my monster... please let me know ;)

“I tried to get him some of those apples, but I cannot learn to throw straight. I failed, but I think the good intention pleased him. They are forbidden, and he says I shall come to harm; but so I come to harm through pleasing him, why shall I care for that harm?”
Mark Twain “Eve’s diary” – 1906
