Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei collaborated with the Hong Kong-based toy designer Eric So for a line of sculptures that look like rounded rubber toys. If the figures in the series, titled ‘Aibudao’ (which means ‘Unlovable’ in Chinese), look familiar it’s because they are caricatures of the artist.

The nude figures with spiky hair are colored in red, brown, and black. They were created as a reference to Weiwei’s nude portrait series, which the Chinese government criticized and dismissed as pornography.

Designboom notes that the ‘Aibudao’ sculptures were on view at Art Stage Singapore 2013 in the Singapore Museum of Art & Design‘s booth.
