Painted cast vinyl - Stamped "© KAWS..09...MEDICOM TOY 2009 MADE IN CHINA" on the underside // KAWS’ Four Foot Companion - Black Dissected (2009) is a striking mixed media sculpture that combines pop culture aesthetics with the artist’s signature Companion figure. This large-scale work, made from painted cast vinyl, presents the familiar Companion character, split down the middle to reveal a detailed anatomical cross-section. The left half of the figure displays the outer black vinyl form, while the right half exposes colorful, stylized internal organs, including a bright pink brain and vibrant intestines. KAWS’ characteristic X eyes and cartoonish proportions evoke a playful yet eerie atmosphere. The Dissected Companion series comments on the fragility of life and the juxtaposition between surface appearances and underlying complexities. This piece, stamped with the artist's signature and production details, highlights KAWS’ ability to blend high art with commercial toys, creating a work that is both playful and profound.

What is Hard Edge Art?
Hard Edge art is a style of abstract painting that became popular in the 1960s. It features areas of color separated by crisp, sharp edges that are painted with geometric precision. The term hard-edge painting was coined by art critic Jules Langsner to describe this approach, which contrasts with the softer, more fluid forms of other abstract styles.
