  • Catalogue Essay

    - In 2012 Ikepod announced at Baselworld their collaborative effort with renowned graffiti artist and designer KAWS. The reconceptualised Horizon model, released at Colette’s in Paris, was a union of haute horlogerie and contemporary art. Marc Newson’s classic pebble-shaped design with seamless integrated bezel references astrophysics’ theoretical “event horizon”, which is the boundary around a black hole from which nothing, even light, can escape.

    - The 44mm diameter automatic watch featured a dial with KAWS iconic “X Eye” motif for the hands, and “Chomper” teeth design for the hour markers. Produced in four versions with red, white and black dials these unique timepieces captured KAWS style in an understated and playful way.

    - A pop icon and one of the most coveted artist of our times, KAWS is a global sensation. With the most recent 10th rendition of KAWS: Holiday with the popping pink rabbit sculpture that made waves, the iconic “XX” motif of the artist is unmistakable.

    - The present Ikepod Horizon by KAWS, no. 09 in black and white is presented in excellent overall condition and accompanied with its original accessories. Paired with a black rubber strap that can be fasten by a pin, the design resembles a KAWS character with its tongue sticking out, which adds an extra bit of playfulness to the whole timepiece.
