Murakami Soccerball

[ultramarine]

At a $395 price tag ... you may order the ultimate Takashi Murakami design ...
A Soccer ball with the now-fabled flower design in a transparent plastic bag (included)
Available at Colette & Barney's online stores.

PS I should get a comission if i actually score a sale (something I dont see happening, somehow!)

I went and took a look. Definitely not worth it, there's nicer (and more practical)Nike and Adidas ones out there if you're going to kick it around, and it would look horrible as an ornamental piece, with that huge flower head..

very very cute. i would put it in a glass box and make it part of the furniture at home

I like it....

Note: Don't put negative light on takashi just because of the whole overexposed louis vuitton bags. He has been around a long time before that. His art is actually very good, at least i like it. Otaku culture is very interesting.

those little flowers with faces are so cute, like i want them to talk and say something cute haha.

they also have a little creepy factor to em in a way too, lol.

Cool leyla!, I actually think it is a piece of art. I saw this ball a long time ago on bozart and was actually considering buying it at one time, because I love Takashi's work.

...its funny how someone mentioned it disturbing, read this interview, it is very insightful of takashi's work.
