Miss Vancouver
A large-scale photographic work mounted on aluminum and framed beneath Plexiglas, *Miss Vancouver* combines the slick commercial aesthetics of advertising signage with an intimate portrait format. Ken Lum pairs the chromogenic print with enamel text, evoking the visual language of storefronts and retail displays to examine identity, consumerism, and the representation of urban life. The work reflects Lum's ongoing interest in the intersections of everyday signage, cultural belonging, and the social landscape of the contemporary city.
