The minted Mouse - A luxury Relic Reimagined
Every sculpture begins with a spark, an image I can’t get out of my head. For The Minted Mouse, that spark was the idea of uncovering a relic—an artifact that feels both familiar and completely transformed.
This piece merges the iconic silhouette of the classic mickey character with the rich textures of upcycled Louis Vuitton and money-green accents.
This sculpture was created to resemble a reconstructed specimen, the kind of object one might encounter in a dimly lit Cabinet of Curiosities or the back room of an archaeological institute. A skull with the unmistakable silhouette of Mickey ears, assembled from upcycled Louis Vuitton fragments and money-green accents, restored with the care of an anthropologist attempting to understand a long-lost icon.
