Takashi Murakami’s art has been a symbol of pop-art culture, with his flower being a synonym of his creative output. Seen on Kanye West’s album cover, Billie Eilish’s music video and many more, the Japanese artist has worked with many names for collaborative releases and also venturing into the NFT field.

With just having a release with Lewis Hamilton a month back, Murakami is back for another collaborative collection with none other than American rapper/singer Post Malone. Diving into the notable icons of the duo, the lineup of tops and accessories features Murakami’s flower, Mr Dob and Post’s butterfly as the design motifs.

Just like how Murakami’s flower represents trauma and Post’s butterfly represents hope, contrasting prints labels their respective name against the other’s artwork while they form a smiley expression when combined together.

Pre-released for a pop-up event ongoing at 433 N Fairfax Ave in Los Angeles from 16th to 20th November, the Post Malone x Takashi Murakami capsule collection will be made available online from 21st November exclusively via NTWRK.
