Canadian illustrator Patrick Wong has teamed up with Artransmitte to release the "Dead Hippie" figure at ToyConUK on April 12th. Standing 3-inches tall, these hand-cast resin pieces are limited to an edition of 30 with a 1/6 chase in black & mint green colors! Inspired by Dan Graham's statement that youth culture, such as hippies, perceive that one would symbolically die at the age of 30, or whenever they entered the so-called 'adult world.' Packaged in a beautiful box made by Wong, each one include a signed & numbered card. Available at Artransmitte's ToyConUK Booth 09 for £20 apiece.
