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 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.
