A series of play animals created from a process that examined the hardness of textiles using rigid polymers and articular movement of elements through the movement of compressed air in a balloon. The process led to the development of a technique for producing dynamic canvas toys for an interactive game of discovery and surprise. The structure of the toys produces tension between textures and sensations, between soft areas and hard details, and between moving and hidden parts to static and fixed parts. The encounter between all the elements in the character series longs for a dynamic game of discovery between the child and the object.
