Tanuki Motif Pins - 20th Anniversary Collection
Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac
Description
A small object with a big personality, this pin is part of the 20th Anniversary Collection-a fragment of a journey to wear every day. Both understated and expressive, it attaches to a jacket, bag, or accessory as a symbol of escape and curiosity.
Inspired by a visitor's journey through the museum, the collection evokes those moments when we observe, note, and sketch fragments of distant cultures encountered throughout the exhibitions. From this back-and-forth between observation and imagination emerges a personal, ever-evolving tapestry.
The Tanuki motif, an iconic figure of Japanese folklore, embodies transformation, mischief, and the spirit of travel. Here, it becomes a poetic symbol of the imagination in motion, straddling reality and invented narrative.
A small object to collect, give as a gift, or wear, like a living souvenir of those imaginary journeys that never cease to reinvent themselves.
