Note:

A simple but appealing work by the artist, intimate in scale and enigmatic in form, this palm-sized sculpture by Andy Miki evokes a creature neither animal nor human. Evident here is the artist’s inclination toward simplicity of form and contentment working with hard, unyielding material sometimes meager in size.
