Bunny and Cosmos Bunny are artist objects that find their place in contemporary interiors as well as in gardens. Beneath the joyful and quirky aspect hide several layers of references such as the rabbit from Alice in Wonderland, Greek mythology and, of course, our childhood memories. By creating Bunny , Kuroda immerses himself in his walk with Joan Miró, in the Labyrinth of the Maeght Foundation and the large marble Lunar Bird by the Catalan artist, with its sensual curves and its imposing dimension. Bunny is in this lineage, the same artistic strength and the same humor. Bunny oscillates between childish innocence and powerful artistic questioning.
