The dominant figure is the renowned "COMPANION," initially inspired by the timeless charm of Mickey Mouse. Towering over the scene, this character exudes a sense of familiarity and nostalgia, embodying the essence of companionship and camaraderie.
Adjacent to the towering Companion hangs a smaller, plush-like variation, resplendent in bubblegum pink. This endearing figure, affectionately dubbed BFF, dangles from the left hand of its larger counterpart. With its playful color palette and irresistibly charming design, BFF adds a touch of whimsy and innocence to the composition, serving as a visual testament to the bonds of friendship and shared experiences.
Through Share, KAWS invites viewers into a world where imagination and familiarity intertwine, where iconic characters transcend their origins to convey timeless messages of connection and unity. As observers engage with the piece, they are encouraged to reflect on the significance of friendship and the joy of shared moments, ultimately embodying the spirit of togetherness that lies at the heart of the artwork.%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22artist%22%3EKAWS%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22title_and_year%22%3E%3Cspan%20class%3D%22title_and_year_title%22%3EShare%3C/span%3E%2C%20%3Cspan%20class%3D%22title_and_year_year%22%3E2022%3C/span%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22medium%22%3EScreen%20print%20on%20Stonehenge%20gray%20paper%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22dimensions%22%3E20%20x%2016%20in%3Cbr/%3E%0A50.8%20x%2040.6%20cm%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22edition_details%22%3EEdition%20of%20500%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22series%22%3E%3Cspan%20class%3D%22artwork_caption_prefix%22%3ESeries%3A%3C/span%3E%20Other%20Editions%3C/div%3E
