Four Foot Dissected Companion

2009

A large-scale painted cast vinyl sculpture by KAWS, the Four Foot Dissected Companion presents the artist's iconic Companion figure with its interior anatomy exposed, revealing a cross-section of the character's inner construction. The work merges the language of popular culture and toy aesthetics with a conceptual nod to anatomical models, rendered in KAWS's signature graphic palette. Standing four feet tall, the piece bridges fine art and collectible culture, exemplifying KAWS's exploration of consumerism, identity, and emotional vulnerability.
