"Duopoly" is a series of updated digital images that are based on a set of vintage game cards. While nostalgic and fun, it also attempts to comment upon the contrasts in our values today.
Two other works will be on display: "Lost", an ink jet on paper installation, and "18 Portraits (NECCO Men)", digital images that are a nod to Gerhard Richter's "48 Portraits", this time with men who had a significant impact on the candy industry.
