The Monsters | Labubu | Zimomo: Kasing Lung
Dowiedz się więcej →Kasing Lung wasn't planning a global phenomenon. He was planning a fairy tale. Born in Hong Kong, raised in the Netherlands, settled in Belgium — he grew up between cultures, languages and mythologies. No consoles, no internet: just drawing and European fairy tales. The fascination with elves and folklore that began in childhood never faded. It turned into The Monsters — a world inhabited by Labubu, Zimomo, Tycoco and the rest of the toothy family, which conquered collectors across the planet. Today his figures sell out within a minute of release, reach auction prices running into hundreds of thousands of dollars, and Sony Pictures is making a film about them. But the core has stayed the same — a forest mythology created by a man who simply wanted to tell a story. Meet the artist behind one of the most recognisable characters in the history of art toys.
