Futura recently unveiled its Abstract Compass installation in Hong Kong and its next project spotlights the special 'NULL Project.' It is made in collaboration with Samuel Ross' Concrete Objects project and it dials into the American artist's graffiti styles. The figure is modeled after the NULL character by Ross and it is decorated in a series of paint splatters that are done by Futura.
The sculpture comes in three colors, including black, cream, or a glowing iteration. The body of the figurine is shaped like a disproportionate hexagon and it features four limbs protruding from the body. It also has multiple layers to its monolithic structure and it is constructed from materials such as lacquer, pigment, steel, Epoxy resin, Jesmonite, and acrylic spray paint.
