KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 17 -- AllRightsReserved (ARR), a Hong Kong-based creative studio, has presented ≺KAWS:HOLIDAY SPACE≻ , in collaboration with world-renowned American contemporary artist, KAWS.
For ≺KAWS:HOLIDAY SPACE≻, COMPANION dons an astronaut suit and takes a sounding balloon 41.5 kilometres (136,296 feet) up into the Stratosphere.
After reaching super-high speeds, COMPANION's adventure culminates in a two-hour, zero-gravity walk in uninhabited space before returning to Earth.
The entire exploration process took about eight hours from preparation for lift-off, departure to landing.
It was recorded with a 360-degree panoramic video camera, capturing COMPANION's historical moment and marking his 20th year in existence.
“Because this year marks 20 years since I created COMPANION, I tried to find a way around all the restrictions and do something special. I felt so confined the past few months that creating a project like this has really given me a chance to escape,” said KAWS in a statement.
ARR began its long-term partnership with KAWS since KAWS:PASSING THROUGH in 2010, and continued to KAWS:HOLIDAY-the giant inflatable sculpture COMPANION, exhibited in various relaxed poses in different locations including Korea, Taipei and Hong Kong.
