Follow @sidedimes on Instagram for more Dimes. Side Dimes was created by Mikayla Lapierre, a art director based out of Brooklyn, New York. Mikayla started Side Dimes to make art that sees through cultural norms and defines pop culture in society. Her pieces give a voice to the women of the 17th and 18th century by mashing up the old and the new — ideas, understandings, trends and pop culture — to create an original and irreverently modern ‘side’ piece. All Dimes are digitally painted on top of reproductions of paintings from the 17th and 18th century Each Dime has unique story. Thank you for following along!
