HelloKitty-UntappedCities-AFineLyne-638x640
The Hello Kitty sculpture is among several launched last year and placed in cities all around the world. The artist, Sebastian Masuda hopes to fill each one with “objects and feelings uniquely personalized by each individual”, or what he calls “kawaii”. This particular sculpture now graces the Dag Hammerskjold Plaza on East 47th Street. All the sculptures will be collected and displayed in a single large-scale exhibition at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Our Hello Kitty Time After Time Capsule will be on display through September 13, 2015.
