Arty-Fact: Famed for painting over iconic and medical packaging, from McDonald’s to Dior, Australian artist Ben Frost’s work forces us to look at our modern capitalist society, and our attitudes towards branding, advertisements and blasé approach to medications.
By subverting mainstream iconography from the worlds of advertising, entertainment and politics, Ben creates a visual framework that is bold, confronting and often controversial. His imagery often shows hentai inspired girls, highlighting the hyper-sexualisation which overwhelms modern advertising.
