Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of a minor 1/2 inch loss of the lacquer on the underside of the right foot of the figure, only visible why sculpture is laying flat.

"As we compare body postures and assertiveness – or lack of it – in front of a Chum... we are using it as an excuse to see ourselves. That is, they allow us not only to see others, but we can also stand back and perceive how we ourselves are seen... If, for the Pop artists of the 1960s, the premise was, 'You are what you buy,' for KAWS it would be, 'You are what you see.'" Mónica Ramírez-Montagut, "KAWS: Seeing You Seeing Yourself," in Ian Luna and Lauren A. Gould, Eds., KAWS, New York 2010, p. 133
