Katherine Bernhardt

Cigarette (brown)

2014

Katherine Bernhardt's *Cigarette (brown)* is a boldly graphic work rendered in acrylic and spray paint on canvas, showcasing the artist's signature flat, cartoonish aesthetic. The cigarette motif is depicted with loose, expressive brushwork and vivid contrasts against a raw background, reflecting Bernhardt's embrace of pop culture imagery and consumer objects. Her irreverent approach blurs the line between high art and everyday iconography, infusing the mundane subject with playful energy and urgency.
