BLACK QUEEN. 2008.

London: S.p./British Art Show, n.d. (c. 2008)

7 x 6 x 2cm, two part hinged plastic box with paper insert and wrap-around band content of a ceramic and metal broach in the shape of the current UK queen’s head and with floral decorations in place of facial detail. Googly (plastic eyes) and fake jewels in the “crown”. The text inside reminds one (or “One”) that fame and life are fleeting – a rather beautiful momento mori produced in an unknown limited edition. Fine.
