An artist's edition skate deck by Jeff Koons, produced in 2025 by the Brussels-based publisher of artist skateboard editions, as part of a four-day time-limited drop. The deck reproduces imagery from Koons's Seated Ballerina — the polished stainless steel sculpture Koons executed between 2010 and 2015 after a small porcelain figurine of a Ukrainian ballerina by Oksana Zhnikrup, later scaled to a 45-foot inflatable that stood in Rockefeller Plaza in 2017 as a tribute to missing children.
