WITH CARE

For Years, Scientists Believed the Taguá Had Vanished From the Earth and Only Existed as a Fossil. When It Was Rediscovered Alive in the Chaco During the 1970s, It Became Known as a Living Ghost of the Past.

Total Population at Roughly 3,000.

Some animals disappear in plain sight. Too quiet, too rare, or too feared to ever really be looked at.

NOTICED

REMEMBERED

Every figure carries a small void where its eyes should be. Not empty just unseen, until now.

To be remembered is to be kept a little longer. Mymbá Street is one small way of looking back.

Mainu Yinoot is a Paraguayan-born visual artist and sculptor based in Helsinki. Her work is guided by a single idea: building a real, physical connection between people and the characters she creates, exploring the representation of living beings.

Each character blends the strange with the playful, inviting a sensory experience that goes beyond just looking. By playing with smooth, rough, and imperfect textures, the sculptures encourage a closer interaction between the public and the piece.

Mainu works across both digital and physical mediums to translate her ideas from 2D drawings into 3D forms. Her approach is based on five years of experience with paper clay and papier-mâché, exploring how an idea on paper becomes something tangible.

Through this hybrid approach, she transforms flat concepts into three-dimensional figures, aiming to bring people closer to the reality of endangered species and create a space for empathy, awareness, and reflection on what we often overlook.
