When you’ve got a best-selling theme like Michael Leon’s notorious ‘Skulls Behind Sunglasses’ motif, it’s probably a good idea to stick with it.
The designer, former Nike Design Director and skateboarding enthusiast has created a limited edition set of sculptures based on his ‘Skulls Behind Sunglasses’ image. The image is one that he has masterfully used in artwork since 2005, with the first black and white versions selling out minutes after he opened the doors to his namesake studio.
Unlike the first version, the limited edition set of ‘Skulls Behind Sunglasses’ spans the colors of the rainbow and each sculpture is cast in gypsum with a hand-engraved number and Leon’s signature.
