Death of a dreams?

Laurel Keeble is a very interesting contemporary artist that blends pop culture with a millenium sight, rather charming. These are some shots of her last installation called “Graveyard Install”. The theme in this case is the level of idolatry and veneration for symbols and brands.

“The project was based on the theory of magical thinking, looking at belief systems and idol worship, and creating an intervention that like other work I have installed, plays with the viewers perception and with any luck creates a pause for thought! The ‘headstones’ were made from polystyrene, plaster and spraypaint.”
