Daniel Arsham's 'Hollow Figure' stands as the inaugural Limited Edition artwork derived from his acclaimed 'Architectural Anomaly' Series. This piece offers a scaled-down rendition of Arsham's larger-than-life creations, meticulously crafted from opaque white resin. Evoking the illusion of a figure enveloped in draped fabric, 'Hollow Figure' intriguingly reveals its emptiness when viewed from behind. Arsham's larger installations of these works have captivated audiences worldwide, gracing the halls of esteemed institutions such as The Fabric Workshop Museum in Philadelphia, Carré d'Art de Nîmes in France, and Museu Oi Futuro Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.


Contained within a sealed, studio-designed housing unit and cushioned with Arsham Studio's eco-friendly loose-fill system, each 'Hollow Figure' is accompanied by a pair of white, industrial-strength art handling gloves. Limited to an edition of 500 pieces, every sculpture bears a holographic label certifying its authenticity. 


Daniel Arsham, renowned for his multidisciplinary approach encompassing sculpture, architecture, drawing, and film, introduces a unique perspective on sculpture and archaeology through his concept of "fictional archaeology." His works serve as enigmatic artefacts of the present, embodying a sense of disembodied futurism.
