Menino Passarinho e o Lobo-guará (The Little Bird Boy and the Maned Wolf) — Illustrated book by Gustavo Floering ✦ TerraTundra
What was once invisible now reveals itself. A presence emerges, between matter and imagination.
✦
A little bird boy dreams of flying, but is born with wings too different to inhabit a world that demands normality. When his voice disappears and his wings are broken, a difficult question arises:
how can one continue to exist without losing oneself?
Withdrawn into his nest, he creates new ways to express himself. Guided by peculiar encounters — such as Art, the Maned Wolf, and other beings of the forest — he travels through inner and outer landscapes, until discovering the invisible threads that connect everything.
A poetic and richly illustrated narrative about childhood, neurodiversity, and belonging. A book for those who feel the world in a unique way.

Mushroom Kit – collector’s edition
In this kit, the universe of the work materializes.
At its center, the Mushroom Being takes form as a creature:
a OOAK Art Doll, a unique creation based on the being “Nyu,” handmade with eco-resin in collaboration with Karen C. Only 12/33 are currently available; the remaining pieces will be made to order.
It also includes its amulet version, produced in eco-resin with a limited reproduction.
Available in red or as a surprise / blind box edition (let the creature choose you).
Each creation carries its own variations.
Visual, tactile, and symbolic elements come together in a complete experience, where the book expands beyond its pages and begins to inhabit space.
