"The choice of materials and colors for the statue of David Flores has been carefully considered. This diverse artist likes to use geometric figures to create his works. Compared with the original puppet Pinocchio, the "Real Boy" work here feels given a new image. This product is very attractive in color and material selection."Sized 122cm (H) x 77cm (L) x 48cm (D) Hand Painted, with Silver Plating and FRP, "REAL BOY" is priced at HKD 34,000, in a global limited edition of only 50pcs.
The second sculpture from David Flores to be unleashed for pre-orders at the same time and place, is the "DFXMICKEY" Sculpture.
"This beautiful creation by David Flores is the focus within this artist series. The artist purposely changed Mickey's colour to pink. While the pink palette give viewers a dreamlike feeling, the artist's geometric style design perfectly complements the classic Mickey character."
