Inkjet on canvas
Kelley Walker's *Inkjet on canvas* engages with the saturated visual language of consumer culture, pulling familiar brand imagery into a realm of critical interrogation. Through appropriation, Walker reprocesses the signs and symbols of commercial branding, acknowledging their inescapable hold on contemporary social life rather than pretending to stand outside it. The work positions branding not merely as advertising, but as a shared social space that art can inhabit, manipulate, and ultimately expose.

- “I don’t escape the effects of branding but think of the processes associated with appropriation as a way of dealing with branding as a social space.”
