NAMITO, created by artist Zhang Ge, is a girl with peach-shaped lips in a red mushroom hairstyle with rabbit ear-like headgear. Her unique pouted lips are in the shape of two hearts or similar to the letter "X" (love & say no), implying loving the world while refusing the bad. "Yes, or No, That is Not a Question" is her motto. It calls people to be brave to be themselves and break stereotypes, changing their mindsets through their actions to achieve spiritual freedom.

Namito has been invited to 50+ art exhibitions within China and international prestigious galleries like ART CAPITAL in France, PALPITO in Japan. As well, nearly 20 on-ground events were held in major cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, etc., attracting celebrities like Zhang Ziyi, Su Mang, Tan Songyun, Wu Xin to visit and make a splash in social media platforms, with the total exposure reached over 2 billion.
