The story behind

The idea for Cheval Natte came to Tong Ren when he was designing the Mon Premier Galop scarf. The two designs share the same visual aesthetic: the texture of the braiding and color blocks. Cheval Natte was inspired by the wooden blocks the artist used to build castles when he was a child. Here, Tong Ren adopts the same fun vibe to build an "H"-shaped horse. Cheval Natte is standing on the stage, the curtain open and the lights on. He is ready to open the show.
