critter
wind up | $14

by chico bicalho

critter was conceived by chance, at the studio of a motion display company called hankscraft motors in nyc. it has a godfather called david dear, creator of the fabulous duck mirror, the rainbow maker, and many other amazing products. the first four thousand critters were made by hand, using a vintage japanese gearbox from the 1950’s found at a surplus store. the first place that sold critter is called mxyplyzyk, so, between hankscraft, mxyplyzyk, and kikkerland, you get the idea what we’re dealing with here. essentially a no form follows no function object.
