Koons similarly employs highly polished and reflective metallic surfaces in sculptures like his Balloon Dog series, using chromed and gilded finishes to evoke luxury, optimism and transformation. His use of precious materials and gleaming surfaces directly parallels Quinn's approach in this work.

As a fellow British contemporary artist, Hirst shares Quinn's fascination with precious and transformative materials, notably in works like For the Love of God where platinum and diamonds are used to convey themes of value and mortality. Both artists use opulent surfaces to provoke reflection on wealth and human aspiration.

Kapoor's sculptural practice similarly explores highly reflective and materially rich surfaces that transform perception and evoke a sense of the sublime and precious. His use of polished metals and lustrous finishes creates a comparable visual language of optimism and material transcendence.
