Baboonz is a contemporary art toy inspired by the ancient Egyptian connection between the baboon and Thoth, the god of wisdom, knowledge, and writing.
The project reinterprets this ancient symbolism through a contemporary collectible design language, positioning Baboonz between character design, contemporary art, fashion, and product design.
The collection includes the sculpture, a premium satin-finish packaging system, and a TCG-inspired collectible card with metallic and holographic details, creating a cohesive physical identity and expanding the character’s lore.
The goal was to make Baboonz feel museum-able — a modern collectible art object that connects ancient artifacts with the way we collect and experience objects today.
