Figure Inconnue & Chic
Coming soonArchive note
A promotional poster for a sculptural object—a porcelain figurine of an androgynous character in theatrical dress, rendered in pastel colorway and mid-century decorative style. The figure wears a yellow doublet, mint-green cape, and pink boots, striking a confident pose atop a pedestal. The French subtitle 'Barranquilla en Pastel' suggests a fictional designer collection or limited edition series. Collectors of obscure design ephemera and camp vernacular aesthetics will recognize the deliberate kitsch and subversive gender-play embedded in this lost product advertisement.
Catalogued, not yet released. This artifact will become available to acquire soon.
