This indicates a sign of the increasing prominence of today’s cult of consumerism. Continuing the tradition of pure Pop Art style, these icons are bestowed the charm and prestige of Fine Art.Through this process, Hendry concurrently destroys the original object with precious materials while immortalizing the trophy in ink.The exhibition is on view at The Trophy Room, 79 Greene St, New York, NY.Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek of the exhibition.
