About this work
A figurine of a character that appears to be inspired by a space theme. The character has a round head with closed eyes and a calm expression. It is wearing a helmet that covers the top of its head, adorned with various symbols and patterns. The character's body is robust, with large gloves and boots that also have intricate designs. The overall design suggests a playful and artistic interpretation of a space explorer or astronaut.Born into the greyness of England at the end of the Seventies, by the age of four Jon-Paul Kaiser knew that what he wanted to do in life was a draw. From that point he rarely strayed from that path; scribbling and doodling his way through School, College and University. After working with Porlzilla, Jon-Paul decided to go it alone concentrating at first on the toy customization scene, building up a name and strong reputation for himself with his stark Black & White custom style, influenced by comic book art, film noir & Ukiyo-e prints. This lead to him being approached by established toy producers for designs for their platform toys. Principally amongst these are Toy2R who have released numerous JPK Platforms. Skullpanda is a popular designer art toy series created by Chinese artist Xiong Meow and produced by POP MART, a leading global toy brand. Skullpanda figures are known for their dark, surreal, and gothic-inspired aesthetic, often blending elements of high fashion, streetwear, and fantasy. The character design typically features a pale-skinned, androgynous figure with hollowed-out eyes, a skeletal mouth, and panda-like ears, giving it a distinct eerie-yet-cute appearance.
