Design: Vittorio Gennari

Designed by Vittorio Gennari (2020), this penguin's "DAB" gesture refers to a pose adopted by athletes after an exceptional performance or by footballers after scoring a goal, a gesture of pride that recognizes a great achievement and is imitated by millions of young people around the globe.

60% of the world's penguins have disappeared in the last 50 years, but this penguin seems to say "I'm here and I'm a hero". This call to attention aims to raise awareness of what is happening to those (other than us) who live on planet Earth. Designed using low poly technique, this ceramic penguin is defined by few lines while its facets are accentuated by the introduction of precious metal enamel. As essential as possible, it is as if the penguin were disappearing. One result is a shape that suggests a presence that slowly reduces until it disappears, a representation of time that is coming to an end. In support of animals threatened by climate change, BOSA donates part of the proceeds from the sale of this animal sculpture to WWF.
