Mickey
Mickey is often treated as culturally neutral, but icons rarely stay neutral. Characters carry corporate weight, scale and influence. Innocence becomes tool. Warnings wrapped in familiarity are easier to ignore. There’s also a quiet nod to Full Metal Jacket, where the Mickey Mouse Club song plays over scenes of destruction, unchanged, just decontextualised.
Familiar yet unsettling, playful yet pointed.
Hand cut stencils, layered spray paint, ink and hand applied pastel make each piece completely unique.
Details are refined by hand; overspray, raw edges and subtle imperfections remain, proof of the handmade process.
