Takashi Murakami's beloved panda takes centre stage in this new limited edition print.

Originally created through a collaboration with Louis Vuitton, the panda has since become one of Murakami's most enduring characters. Here, a mother and her cubs sit on a burning ball of smiling flowers, the kind of unsettling paradox that defines his practice.

In this limited edition print, the sky, originally rendered in gold leaf, has been reimagined using high-density reflective glitter, adding a final layer of contradiction between brilliance and unease.

Proceeds from this release will support the future of the Brooklyn Museum.

At first glance, the cumulus clouds and the flower-adorned panda appear very peaceful. Yet, with a skull as the background, there's a starkly unbalanced contrast – you might think it's cute, yet feel a bit uneasy.
