Currency of Influence, Original Artwork

"Currency of Influence" Original Artwork (2024) investigates the convergence of pop culture and economic symbolism in an era where the stability of traditional currency is increasingly questioned. By featuring an iconic character central to Disney's 100-year legacy on a $50 bill, the artwork examines the pervasive power of intellectual property and its far-reaching influence on global society. The juxtaposition of a beloved cultural icon with a symbol of economic value challenges viewers to reconsider the significance and impact of both. This composition seeks to provoke dialogue about the evolving concepts of value, ownership, and the shifting paradigms of influence that define our contemporary world.
