Summary/Artist Statement
As a designer and storyteller, I believe in the power of gentle stories that help children feel seen and understood. Luni the Artist began as a reflection of my own struggles with self-comparison and the journey toward embracing individuality. Through this project, I wanted to remind children—and myself—that everyone's voice and creativity are valuable in their own way. This plush, along with Luni's story, represents more than a product; it's a heartfelt piece of my growth as both an artist and a person.
