Artist Daniel Arsham introduces a new tonal finish to his signature CRACKED BEAR sculpture -- this time, it arrives in pink and is limited to only 500 pieces made. The sculpture is made up of multiple materials, including plaster, fabric, and pigment that all come together to create a bobbled silhouette representing a bear.
The original blue counterpart is recalled as the artist encourages the 500 lucky buyers to custom their own piece. Owners can crack it even further to give their respective CRACKED BEAR their own unique touch. The pink sculpture arrives in a bio-degradable packaging loosely filled with a cushioning system -- each bear also features a holographic number to mark its personalization and authenticity.
