LA-based artist Victor Solomon just unveiled his latest sculpture entitled Moonshot VS.004 made in collaboration with ceramicist Brock Deboer. To create the fine art piece, the duo produced a porcelain basketball, destroyed it to pieces, and then re-assembled the parts using an ancient Japanese method for ceramic repair called Kintsugi. The artwork is part of Solomon’s ongoing project called “Literally Balling.”
The artist recently shared the process in an Instagram post, below.
“I felt Kintsugi had a poetic parallel to the sport, as it’s celebration of the flaws and imperfections as part of an object’s history echo the challenges required in the athlete’s journey,” said Solomon to HYPEBEAST.
The Moonshot VS.004 is sized at 9-inches in diameter and arrives with an acrylic stand. Head over to Literally Balling’s official website to purchase one for approximately $2,500 USD. Only 33 units have been made. For more collectibles, check out Takashi Murakami’s new Flower cushion colorways.
A month after teaming up with acclaimed artist Warren Lotas for an exclusive capsule collection, Fear of God focuses on delivering new pieces for the warmer months with a new “Clouds” drop.
Specifically, Fear of God’s latest summer offering gives fans a new denim jacket and jeans. A matching range, the two pieces feature a vibrant, lighter-toned blend of colors that mimics the look of the clouds above us.
