HOLIDAY HANGZHOU Yellow

HOLIDAY HANGZHOU Yellow is a collectible vinyl KAWS figure in which COMPANION takes the form of a robot. It stands with its arms lowered; rounded head details, large feet and X eyes retain the character’s identity. At the same time, a helmet, chest panel, sculpted joints and mechanical body details create a new futuristic appearance. It is an artistic interpretation of a robot in art-toy form.

KAWS:HOLIDAY beside West Lake

In September 2026, KAWS and AllRightsReserved presented HOLIDAY HANGZHOU beside West Lake in Hangzhou, China. With local partner WESTLAKE 66, they placed a 30-metre reclining robot COMPANION at the site. The project marked the Mid-Autumn Festival: the character’s upward gaze echoed the tradition of moon viewing. The lake’s classical landscape became the backdrop for a new futuristic figure.

Features of the edition

In Yellow, a glossy yellow body combines with grey mechanical details and colourful accents on the chest panel. The contrast reveals the construction of the arms, legs and helmet. The yellow palette echoes the large COMPANION beside West Lake, but the collectible has its own standing pose. It can become a bright accent among more restrained objects in an interior.
