KAWS introduces a new series of physical sculptures fortified by NFTs.

The distinguished artist Brian Donnelly, recognized to many as KAWS, has introduced a line of tangible sculptures authenticated through blockchain technology. This project was conceived in partnership with AllRightsReserved, a creative agency located in Hong Kong.

This launch commemorates the anniversary of the studio and celebrates over a decade of collaboration with KAWS. Named the 'KAWS Bronze Editions,' the set features twelve unique sculptures: Clean Slate, BFF, Seeing, At This Time, Watching, Shelter, Alone Time, Still Moment, Here Today, Space, Good Morning, and Passing Through.

Each sculpture is available in a limited run of 250 pieces. Additionally, there are 50 special artist proofs. The complete collection has a price tag of HK$ 263,760, which is about $34,288. Individual pieces are priced at HK$ 21,980, roughly translating to $2,857 at this moment. AllRightsReserved accepts various payment methods, including both fiat and cryptocurrencies.

Notably, the physical artworks are backed secured by blockchain technology. Every sculpture contains a chip that connects it to a digital token. This release marks KAWS's inaugural use of 'tap-to-own' technology, giving collectors the benefit of receiving both the physical sculptures and their corresponding NFTs. Those interested can submit their applications for the raffle until December 19.

While KAWS is somewhat new to the NFT realm and has never issued an on-chain collection previously, he serves as an artist advisor for the NFT-centric digital art platform GODA, co-founded by the renowned musician Pharrell Williams.
