Daniel Arsham unveils the first figurine of his 'Hollow Figures' series designed for his label 'Arsham Studio.' The piece is inspired by the designer's 'Architectural Anomalies' installation and like the name of the series, it boasts a hollow interior. From the front of the all-white sculpture, it appears to be a human covered in a flowing fabric material, but it is completely empty from the opposite perspective.
This figure has been created in many sizes by Arsham, now scaled down to be suitable for more decorative purposes. He experimented with different sizes using augmented reality. The inaugural piece of the Hollow Figures series is set to drop on December 3rd online at Daniel Arsham
