Penny
Biography
The ubiquity of everyday objects and often overlooked ephemera offer a useful backdrop for Penny's work, with currency providing the most inspiring themes. This recurring element allows the artist to overlay subtle narratives within an already meaningful context.
These recurring motifs include destabilised power structures, subverted notions of wealth/value, the juxtaposition of pop culture images and our relationship with the state/money.
