Series: Rich Enough To Be Batman
Arty-Fact: Rich Enough To Be Batman is a bold and subversive series that provokes questions about wealth and social contribution. The Queen is used throughout the series as a symbol of wealth and is juxtaposed with the cowl of Batman. The cowl represents Batman’s aim to ‘do good’: he wasn’t superhuman, but instead his superpower was to use his wealth to give back to society.
"With everything that is happening in the world right now it’s easy to lose sight of the ever increasing problems on our doorstep. We are so connected as a society online, and so concerned for our virtual presence that we end up disconnected to real anguish when it’s right in front of us. Since the pandemic, the likelihood of households with two full-time workers being pulled into poverty has more than doubled. I want to encourage conversations about wealth and social contribution through the idea that with enough money anyone can be a superhero.” ~ Heath Kane
