Aline Houdé-Diebolt's PANTONE Kinder toys series is a fascinating and color-coded look at the collectible figurines. From Disney characters to toy cars, these Kinder toys are grouped by color and are arranged to create fun and PANTONE-classified compositions.
PANTONE is a color authority that determines color of the year awards and new shade blends. Inspiring countless products, PANTONE is the theme behind yet another art project thanks to Aline Houdé-Diebolt.
The artist's PANTONE Kinder toys series is charming and nostalgic. Its carefully arranged figurines remind one of childhood and resemble complex dioramas that reveal hidden fragments.
These fragmented art pieces celebrate the meaning and sentiment that is associated with Kinder toys. Though fragile and inexpensive, the toys bring one back to their childhood and represent many happy memories and associations.
