The Gamzuzim

Inspiration for this project came from a children's book called "Children of the Forest", about a magical forest and its dwellers.

I dove into the pages of the book, right into this enchanted world,
and thought to myself...

​

What other mysterious creatures might live there?
Where do they hide?

Why are they hiding?

​

The answers to these questions led me to a race of shy creatures hiding within the forest's fungi and trees. They are called "The Gamzuzim", a family of forest mushrooms and trees that can suddenly transform into surprising creatures. The Gamzuzim are chubby, grounded beings designed to spark the imagination.
