Bagus.

Tote bag

This elephant tote bag features Bagus, a herbalist from my Animal Kinhood series, where the animals dress and live like people. He appears facing forward, wearing the mustard corduroy shirt and brown gentleman's waistcoat, tuskless, with that broad, calm shopkeeper's face. A bag for carrying your own things, the way he comes down the mountain loaded at dawn.

I'm spending this time drawing and growing the world of Animal Kinhood. The shop isn't running, and I don't have a date for reopening it.

If it ever opens again, I can let you know.

The real species

Asian elephant.

Elephas maximus

There's no such thing as a weed. Just an herb you haven't found the use for yet.

Tropical forests and grasslands of South and Southeast Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Sumatra and Borneo, and southern China); the Sumatran branch lives in the lowland forests and the slopes of the Bukit Barisan mountains.

Uphill Before the Sun Bites

Before he opens up, Bagus climbs the mountain. It's the first thing he does, while the village still sleeps and the dew is letting loose the scent of the leaves, which is when a plant tells you what it's got. He picks slowly, smelling everything, a blade of grass in his mouth, and comes down loaded right as the sun starts to bite, because the first hour is his hour. A fabric bag with long handles is exactly what that job calls for: you sling it over your shoulder, it holds the weight of the herbs, and it comes down the slope with you.

A Bundle for Every Neighbor

Behind his counter hangs a row of dried bundles, tied with cord: one for every neighbor he couldn't cure. He doesn't sell them or return them, and when the cord loosens, he ties it again. There's more about this elephant in his biography, in case you've taken a liking to him. Bagus carries what matters to him and doesn't let go, and a bag like this suits that way of being: room for the day's things, whatever you pick up along the way, and that one bundle you don't want to leave behind.

§ 07What people ask.08 · about POD
  • Each product is made to order when you place your purchase. There is no pre-made stock or overproduction. A specialised production partner prints, cuts, and prepares it specifically for you.
  • It depends on two things: which piece it is and where it goes. Posters, the mug, the tote and the backpack ship from Europe: 4-7 business days to Europe, 2-4 to the UK, 2-6 to the USA and Canada, 6-22 to the rest of the world. T-shirts and the sweatshirt are made in the United States, so they take considerably longer to reach Europe: 9-25 business days, 7-10 to the UK, 4-10 to the USA and Canada, 5-17 to the rest of the world. Every figure already includes making the piece, since each one is produced when you order it. You will see the exact date for your shipment at checkout.
  • Contact us at mail@yagopartal.com with your order number and clear photos of the damage (include packaging). We will review your case and offer a solution as soon as possible, either replacement or refund.
  • Since products are made on demand, different items may be manufactured at different facilities. Posters, mugs, and backpacks are often shipped separately. Each package has its own tracking number.
  • Yago Partal is a visual artist and photographer from Barcelona known for Zoo Portraits (2013), a project that brought his work to international media. Animal Kinhood is the evolution of that artistic exploration.
  • Yes. We accept custom commissions of all kinds: pet portraits, corporate projects, and artistic collaborations. Visit the Custom Projects section in the footer for details and contact.
  • Yes. At checkout you can enter a different shipping address from billing. The package arrives white-label with no visible price, so the recipient will not see the cost.
  • Yes, we ship worldwide. Shipping costs vary by region and product type. You can see the exact cost at checkout before confirming your order.
