Daniel Arsham is an American artist who creates unique art using themes of decay and erosion. He often works with everyday objects and architectural shapes, transforming them to look as if they are breaking down or have been unearthed from a future world. Arsham uses unusual materials like volcanic ash and crystals to give his artworks an ancient, yet futuristic feel. His style, which he calls 'fictional archaeology,' makes people think about how everything around us changes over time.

Four years ago, The Pokémon Company unveiled its very first artistic collaboration with American artist Daniel Arsham. The project featured a sculptural series called “Relics of Kanto Through Time,” which reimagined beloved Pokémon characters as artifacts from a distant future. Daniel Arsham's vision for the collection portrayed Pokémon as if they had been unearthed a thousand years in the future, bringing a unique, artistic perspective to these iconic figures. Through this collaboration, Pokémon's envisioned future was transformed into a vivid artistic reality, merging the worlds of contemporary art and popular culture.

The Crystalized Seated Pikachu Edition /500 will be Daniel Arshams final release of his collaboration Pokemon series.

It's set to drop on Friday, May 3rd at 12PM ET
