Description
A dignified figure in royal regalia, tiara gleaming and jeweled necklace catching light, blows a bubble of pale pink gum against a soft pink background in a striking contrast of formality and playful irreverence. The photograph merges classical portraiture with contemporary pop sensibility, rendered in rich black and white tones for the figure while the background and bubble maintain their delicate pastel hue. Crafted from bamboo and made to order, with a drilled hole so it hangs on the wall as easily as it works on the counter. A kitchen essential carrying an independent artist's work, not a blank block from the big-box aisle.
