KAWS: HOLIDAY JAPAN LANTERN Invitation

Created as a seeded invitation for the 2019 KAWS: HOLIDAY installation in Japan, this small paper lantern reimagines a traditional festival object through the artist’s unmistakable visual language. Rendered in crisp white with the iconic “XX” motif, the piece bridges contemporary art and cultural craft, celebrating both heritage and global pop sensibility. Originally produced in limited quantities and not available for sale, it remains a sought-after collectible from one of KAWS’s most memorable international projects.
