Congratulations Kaws!
Honestly, how could I not post this? What, cause Kaws does stuff with Nigo he’s not a creative genius anymore? Drama aside, this store he just opened with Medicom is quite amazing, a lot of spaces these days are amazing…what floored me is the 10ft tall ‘Companion’ that’s sliced down the middle to show what it would anatomically look like…just unreal. The first thing that popped into my head was the logistics and cost of getting something like that made. It’s amazing. Sorry to sound like I’m drooling on it, but this is creativity and passion in physical form right here. I mean, yeah congrats on the store, great biz move, but let this post be strictly about this sculpture, work of art, that he has created. Instead of ostentatious ‘bling’, 14kt shoe laces, exclusivity, etc…Kaws took a different route and simply created a beautifully mysterious work of art that anyone who hits the store up can experience. I don’t even have any Kaws stuff, so this post is non-biased to that degree, you know? Congrats to Kaws, you are truly a ‘next level’ person. ***Thanks for Jason for putting me up to Damien Hirst’s work…sorry, I was ignorant to it!
