PangeaSeed and Tokyo-based vinyl toy designer Cometdebris, in collaboration with Pow! Wow! Hawaii and 1xRun, are pleased to announce our latest shark saving effort: Aloha, Sametan! From February 10-15, 2014, at Fresh Cafe? and Loft in Space, in Honolulu, we will host a one of a kind art exhibition featuring over 30 customized Sametan figures designed by over 30 global artists.
Standing at a mere four inches, dressed in trademark jeans and sneakers, Sametan bares the scars of shark finning and what some cultures consider “tradition”. The little vinyl guy has one purpose and one purpose only – to save his kind from extinction. – And now he needs your support to help take his message out of the oceans and into the streets.
Through this unique event, the first of its kind in the Hawaiian islands, we aim to generate greater awareness for the global plight of sharks and the importance of our oceans via creative and entertaining avenues in order to raise critical funding to support PangeaSeed’s ongoing educational / conservation efforts and groundbreaking projects.
