The perfect pet for art and dog lovers
Brooklyn-based Japanese artist Shinji Murakami created this series of adorable mini-puppies based on his iconic exploration of three-dimensional 8-bit sculptures. The process is one of distillation and discovery: removing information to bring into focus the most important elements.
Each puppy is a wooden block sculpture that has been hand-cast in resin. And it’s available in fun, vibrant shades of blue, yellow, white, pink and green. Each color is a limited edition of 100 and is a collector’s item for art and dog lovers alike. It’s the perfect pet for any home. And the best part: it doesn’t shed ;)

Meet the artist
SHINJI MURAKAMI (born 1980, Osaka, Japan) uses his love of 8-bit video game expressions, simple vector lines and original childish drawing characters as a springboard into his own exciting world of story telling. In 2003 Shinji began creating 8-bit map works and street art, and is recently also making 3D-8Bit sculptures that give physical form to his flat 8-bit images.
