Screenprint in colors. Features a close-up composition of the character Chum rendered in vibrant red tones against a dark background. The figure displays the artist's signature 'X' eyes. Bears a signature reading 'KAWS..20' and edition number (6/100) at the bottom.

Note: KAWS emerged from the New York street art scene in the 1990s, initially known for interventions on advertising billboards, before transitioning into sculpture, painting, and printmaking. The CHUM figure, inspired by classic animation aesthetics, became a central vehicle through which KAWS explored themes of repetition, identity, and emotional detachment. Close-up compositions such as this reflect his mature period, in which characters are no longer situated within narrative scenes but instead presented as monumental icons. This shift parallels KAWS's broader movement into the global contemporary art market, where his works engage both mass culture and high art traditions.
