As a master of Hallyu music titan, Fong grinds his study and love of oriental literature into a work of art, crossover launching the “Sting the Punk Cat” hipster doll at the end of 2021.
The first one is the “Fong X Jay Chou” co-branded “Greenie”, which is based on Jay Chou's classic music song “Qing Hua Porcelain”, with the lyrics of the song “Qing Hua Porcelain” as the main theme. The main theme of the creation of the doll is “Celadon Porcelain”, and the main color of the doll is the celadon color in the lyrics of the song “Celadon Waiting for the Smoke and Rain”, for which the co-branded dolls were snapped up in seconds when they were launched at the end of the previous year.
The attraction of the toy and the idol touched the DNA of young people, and the image of “Punk Cat Sting” instantly became a hot IP in the trendy art circle. the design concept of the Punk Cat is a blend of Fong's diversified and gentle creative style, with the image of the cat symbolizing companionship and freedom, and crowned with a retro-type robot's basic type, which gives people a warm atmosphere. The body structure of the doll itself, with precise details and many components, is very different from other trendy dolls, and when co-branded with artists and creators, it gives great creative space as a trendy canvas.
Crossover and collision, soft and versatile, but also the plush art brand AWHITE adhere to the concept of Chi art. In the pure white version of “Sting the Punk Cat”, Mr. Fong and AWHITE join hands to raise the craftsmanship ceiling of the plush industry to a whole new level again. The combination of three-dimensional tailoring and modern thinking mixes poetry and intellect, excellence and precision, and subtle conception with a unique personality and unrestrained rhythm, which is expressed in the best way possible.
“White”, the leitmotif of this co-creation, is presented in embroidery on the chest of the punk cat. In AWHITE's artistic concept, pure white means free space and unlimited imagination. When the pure plush is combined with precision cutting and collides with the unique PVC material, the white color produces subtle changes in layers. The white punk cat is made from 96 pieces of cut-outs, hand-sewn by artisans over a period of 6 hours, relying only on soft plush material to create the precise lines that were previously only found in hard toys. As the only plush limited edition in Fong's “Punk Cat Sting” series, AWHITE perfectly reproduces the mechanical details of punk, but also maintains a soft and gentle feel, which is the science of AWHITE's tailoring.
