Part of the Trophies series, this work presents a gold-leaf silhouette of a buttplug set against a dense, matte black pastel background. The series utilizes the visual language of reward and reverence to recontextualize objects of private ritual, forcing a contrast between "precious" materials and prohibited forms.
Featured in the solo exhibition Bathe in Gold (Asbestos Art Space, 2024) and the group exhibition Collective Intelligence Longa (Galleria Longa, 2024).
