The Visual Language of KAWS: An Exploration of His Signature Artwork
The Unique Style of KAWS
Having started his career as a graffiti artist in the 90s, KAWS' style is grounded in the street art tradition, with a significant influence from pop culture, particularly animation. His bold, colourful works often feature familiar characters, notably his own creation – the Companion, a figure with a skull-and-crossbones head and gloved hands, which has become a symbol synonymous with KAWS' art.
