The Japanese sculptor Kenji Yanobe is known for his large-scale robotic and nightmarish toys. But animals too have always played an important role in Yanobe’s work too. And in his latest work titled "Ship’s Cat" (inspired by the historic tradition of carrying a cat aboard many trading, exploration and naval ships), Yanobe has created a series of large-scale cat sculptures in various positions wearing protective helmets.
