L'Icône Subversive
Coming soonArchive note
A 1960s porcelain figurine—mass-produced, cherubic, docile—retrofitted with a protest sign in this exhibition artifact from Paris, October 2024. The image documents a conceptual gesture: childhood innocence weaponized, consumer kitsch recontextualized as political dissent. Speaks to collectors of subversive design, institutional critique, and the archaeology of suppressed resistance.
