Silkscreen // KAWS’s Presenting the Past, created in 2014, is a limited edition silkscreen print measuring 32 by 32 inches. The composition showcases KAWS’s signature vibrant style, featuring bold, cartoon-like figures rendered in flat colors and dynamic shapes. The central characters, a yellow figure entangled in green vines and a distressed, spherical blue character, are surrounded by abstract, fragmented red and pink forms, creating a sense of chaos and movement. The exaggerated, graphic nature of the figures and the overlapping, angular elements give the piece a three-dimensional feel, despite its flat application of color. The interplay between the characters suggests a narrative, with emotional tension implied by the body language and expressions. KAWS’s work blends elements of pop culture, street art, and fine art, encouraging viewers to interpret the relationships and emotions conveyed through his iconic visual language.

What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
