Kappa Scalp
A wine glass topped with a toupée and plastic elements sits beneath a glass dome on a wooden base, merging the mundane with the absurd in Kelley's signature style. The work plays on notions of preservation and display, evoking both scientific specimen cases and domestic trophy culture. Through this unsettling assemblage, Kelley transforms everyday objects into a meditation on identity, artifice, and the grotesque.
