these little dolls are for mobile phone straps, known as ‘voodoo
dolls’ (Japan) or ‘big head dolls’ (Korea). when i first saw their
appearance in the market back in april or so, the color combination
and size were the only factors for variations. today i found them
coming in so many different styles, individually crafted with distinct
personality! photo taken in Shibuya, Tokyo.

Phone collection is interesting- amazing range of products! Interactive and other ‘hands-on’ exhibits plus (perhaps quite importantly) the quiet space prob give reasons to come back. Wondered how crowded the huge space can be- empty spaces can scare people in the country where the average density is high.
