PRESS-CONTINUED: This rare artists edition showcases the creative range of coarse, as they unlock another layer of their ever-evolving style. The series juxtaposes a playful color palette with the harsh moods displayed by the coarse characters. The loser edition portrays the vibrant spring variation of the jaws series, reborn, innocent and full of zeal.
The noops were conceived in the warm elastomer spring, lost from the beginning. They grew strong in the summer, and then switched to a life of decline, a life that drew towards a painful end, slowly passing into nothing but blackness. This supreme and highly limited figure set marks the beginning and the end of the recurring noop life cycle, closing of the final chapter of the era of jaws.
