Future Relic D.I.O.R. Eroded Letters

DIOR fashion house letters reimagined as eroded crystalline artifacts cast in hydrostone with quartz crystal formations, accompanied by archival materials and tools. The elaborate presentation critiques luxury branding and the fetishization of consumer goods.

Medium
Cast multiple in hydrostone with hand-applied quartz crystals, in four parts, with accompanying gloves, sand-timer, and clip removal tool, all contained in the original foam-lined 'DIOR' printed wooden crate with artist's name.
