Following a teaser just hours before the official announcement, KAWS took to Instagram and unveiled his new anticipated ‘GONE’ Companion vinyl figure. The design of the American artist’s collectible statuette has been inspired by a large-scale model of the same name with his Companion character carrying the ‘BFF’ mascot covered in all-black and white detailing.
The figure will debut during KAWS’ exhibition titled "COMPANIONSHIP IN THE AGE OF LONELINESS" at the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne on September 20. Stay tuned for more details to come and check out the ‘GONE’ Companion vinyl figure in the gallery above.
