Two friends meet up with a third in SAFE SPACE (SMALL), (2023). Holding space for one another, the figures relax with intertwined arms. Pastel outfits and a blue bubble hairstyle pair with endearing looks and a touch of attitude from bright orange earrings stating “Chula.” The younger version of SAFE SPACE (LARGE) (also 2023), these figures are getting to know another and developing life-long friendships.
