About this artwork
Love Object – {$M}
2025, collage, acrylic, found silver spoon handle, graphite on blue board.
A black silhouette of a galloping horse runs across a childlike pink background, resting above a line of small white hearts—stickers from a schoolgirl’s notebook.
But the horse is literally mounted on an antique silver spoon handle, an object that carries the double burden of heritage: family silver, dowry, refinement, and violence.
Its eye is red, alive,… human.
The creature is simultaneously a toy, a trophy, and a victim of compulsory romance.
Short wall-text:
She was given hearts and a silver handle.
Now she runs only when someone stirs the tea.

Conceptual Artist | Creator of the Transaction Art Universe
My practice interrogates the fragile architectures of identity, memory, and value in a hyper-surveilled world. At its core lies the Transaction Art Universe (2012–Present)—an evolving system where art emerges from bureaucratic seams, digital fractures, and anonymized collective acts.
Key Pillars:
▸ Anonymity as Resistance
3,214+ collaborators surrender authorship under binding NDAs, creating a hive of contested narratives.
▸ The Aesthetics of Failure
Glitches, erased data, and legal voids are not metaphors—they are the medium.
▸ Art as Legal Fiction
Each piece exists as both artifact and contract, challenging ownership’s boundaries.
For Collectors:
Acquiring a Transaction Art work means investing in a living system. Whether a notarized glitch-print, performance relic, or cryptographic document, you become custodian of an ongoing experiment where art and transaction collapse into one.
