Brian Donnelly, better known by the moniker KAWS has previewed his preparation
for his latest exhibition titled “Passing Through” debuting in Hong Kong. The artist
will have various paintings, sculptures, and graphics on display, but the piece

by far the largest sculpture KAWS has undertaken, and he’s provided a preview of
the exhibition’s mainstay. The exhibition kicks off October 4th and runs through to
the 24th.

by Santiago Stelly.
