REVENGE Degenerated Skull (Degraded Skull) Very exclusive and limited sculpture in resin, only 200 copies, each numbered and signed. Aprox. 21.5×18.5x15cm. Note: paint burble paints revise the pictures In this piece we see Mouse’s skull with hardly any teeth, with marked venous ducts and a double plaster on one of his ears. The entire piece is bathed in the golden color, creating an antagonistic sensation in which the idea of the sumptuous and at the same time trivial object converges. Revenge, the enigmatic artist behind "DEGENERATED SKULL," crafts a piece that establishes a direct dialogue with the world's top 20 highest-grossing contemporary artists. This connection is far from accidental; it serves as a deliberate and profound recontextualization of their signature styles. The sculpture—a fusion of an anatomical skull and iconic pop culture geometry—evokes the work of KAWS, renowned for his manipulation of familiar figures and anatomical cross-sections. Its hyper-reflective gold-plated finish exudes a sense of luxury and scale reminiscent of Jeff Koons' obsession with polished, high-end materials. Meanwhile, the skull motif itself directly echoes the modern vanitas themes popularized by Damien Hirst. Additionally, the subtle cross emblem on the ear and the raw conceptual presentation nod to the street art and pop lineage defined by giants like Jean-Michel Basquiat and Banksy. By channeling these influences, "DEGENERATED SKULL" pays homage to the contemporary masterminds who dominate the market while carving out its own distinct identity at the intersection of pop iconography, luxury, and fine art.
