These adorable papier-mache pandas where created to send a message to the public about the tragic truth of these animals. About how they are in rapid decline because of the loss of their ecosystem, by human development.
A French Artist called Paulo Grangeon worked with the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), PMQ and the creative studio AllRightsReserved to create all 1,600 Pandas to raise awareness. They are all made from recycled paper.
Each Panda represent a member of the species that is still alive today. It is a bit shocking to think that these are all that are left in the world. People who are involved in the project, hope that it will create world awareness to this environmental crises.
The pandas are currently on tour in Hong Kong and have already travelled to cities like Paris, Rome and berlin. Grangeon will also make four special edition paper pandas, which will go on display at PMQ in support of conservation and to promote the message of a coexistence between humans and nature.
