ABOUT
LAPUTA Studio’s Ponyo art piece freezes the magic of transformation in a single intimate tableau — two versions of Ponyo sharing one walnut wood stage, one lifting a functional glowing lantern (rechargeable via Type-C), the other watching with fish-eyed wonder, and a tiny bucket Ponyo tucked at their feet. At just 14 cm tall, it holds more storytelling and warmth than pieces twice its size.
CHARACTER ORIGIN
<p>Ponyo is the spirited goldfish-girl protagonist of the 2008 Studio Ghibli film <em>Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea</em>, directed by Hayao Miyazaki. Born Brunhilde, the daughter of the sea wizard Fujimoto, she escapes the ocean and is discovered by a young boy named Sosuke — first in a bucket, then slowly transforming into human form through sheer force of will and love. This piece captures the charged, in-between moment of her transformation: the half-human Ponyo marveling at her own new hands and the light she holds, while her fish-girl self looks on — two states of the same boundless wonder existing side by side.</p>
