About Elephant

The artwork features a bright, reflective depiction of an elephant rendered in shiny steel. The sculpture is marked by its cartoonish and whimsical style, with exaggerated and colorful elements that evoke a sense of childlike wonder. The elephant’s body is composed of rounded shapes and vivid hues, including blue for the head and ears, pink for the inner ears, and yellow for the belly. The creature’s trunk, extending upward, holds a small patterned object, adding to the playful nature of the piece. This artwork stands as a testament to Jeff Koons’ signature style, characterized by its use of everyday imagery and bold, shiny surfaces.
