Iza Rutkowska and the Forms and Shapes Foundation can’t get enough of planting giant plush animals in unexpected places, and frankly, we can’t either.

Following on from The Cuddly – a monumental tribute to the teddy bear – the Polish crew have come up with The Hedgehog: a puzzle-like creature made up of 30 cushy pieces, designed to be constructed through the cooperation of a community of people. This time they’ve plonked the spiky critter down in the Polish city of Wroclaw, hoping to entice folks out of their homes to mix and mingle in the street. And it sure seems to be working, if this video is anything to go by.
