“Pierced: Shades of Grey” Vinyl Sculpture by Parra & Kidrobot

Kidrobot x Parra Pierced: Shades of Grey Vinyl Figure

Never one to miss out on an opportunity to cash in on a popular release, Kidrobot has teamed up with world renowned Dutch artist Parra to release a second colorway of his immensely popular Pierced vinyl figure. For Pierced: Shades of Grey, Parra turns the bright hues of his original art piece to muted shades of grey. The contrasting matte and high gloss 10” vinyl sculpture has no front or back, instead it tells its story in the round.

Kidrobot - Pierced: Shades of Grey Vinyl Figure by Parra

Pierced: Shades of Grey depicts two figures entwined and suspended in a dramatic dance of passion and pain. This fiery embrace between two lovers, one clothed and one nude, changes from an ecstatic and intimate moment to an impaling brutal display of empowerment all based on the direction you are looking at the piece.

Produced as a limited edition of 750 with Parra’s signature engraved on the bottom, Pierced: Shades of Grey goes on sale on January 31st at Kidrobot stores, kidrobot.com, and select retailers worldwide for $150.
