Dutch artist Parra and Toykyo has released the new 'Take a Rest' Sculpture Black Edition to finish off the series that they started not too long ago.
As a refresher, the collaboration between the artist and the creative agency came together to produce a penguin with heels for arms and legs sitting in a resting position; the first release saw the red and blue colorways. For the finale, the two are putting out the 'Take a Rest' Sculpture Black Edition featuring the exact same sculpture, but in a much darker tone.
The 'Take a Rest' Sculpture Black Edition is said to be the most exclusive one in the series with only 20 to be produced. The figurine has been released so if you want to grab one, I suggest you start hunting immediately.
