"Make a talking giraffe!"
A wooden giraffe, created by Giacometti and Buñuel, mysteriously disappeared in 1932... and was never found. Follow the video tutorial to make the surrealist giraffe reappear on cardboard and imagine new poetic texts to hide behind its spots.

Made by Alberto Giacometti around 1926, Small Man is a plaster sculpture that has now disappeared. Bring it back to life through the magic of folding! By building this paper toy, you will develop your understanding of volumes and your dexterity, in the manner of sculptors.
