Description: Willy Wonka-style “Golden Ticket” treasure hunt. Guests will have the opportunity to search for 100 inflatable crowns marked AIR to be hidden amongst 50,000 inflatable crowns marked SPARE. If you find a crown marked with AIR, you will win one of the 100 bronze crowns, signed and numbered. The crown offered in this listing is one of the inflatable ones marked SPARE. The crown is deflated and I cannot guarantee that it does not have a leak. The crown in the photo shows how it looks inflated. Approximately 7 1/2 inches tall X 26 inches around The Project as described by the artist: I have always been fascinated with ordinary run-of-the-mill objects, something you can buy for a couple of bucks from the dollar store. I enjoy the idea of transforming something ordinary into something extraordinary. In this case, an everyday plastic inflatable crown is instantly elevated and manipulated into a grandiose headrest. Another reason I have been so drawn to inflatable crowns is due to the playful nature of these cheap party-favors. They are meant to represent the monarchy, but they are in fact mocking the very nature of the establishment through their mass production, everything the royals are not. The Artist Cj Hendry is an Australian artist living and working in Brooklyn, New York. Her earliest mature investigations began in 2013 where she focused on rendering luxury products in black and white ink. Around 2018 she introduced color into her working practice which opened up her world. Her practice expanded to include more conceptual pursuits. “I felt limited to a single sheet of paper, I had more to say, I felt suffocated, I just wanted to do big shit and I had to leave paper to fully realize what I had swirling around in my head.” Monumental exhibitions staged by Hendry include “Monochrome” (2018), “Rorschach” (2019), and “Epilogue” (2022), where flower petal-shaped confetti was released over the course of ten days in a rundown cathedral in East London renovated by the artist. Most recently, Hendry culminated “Plaid” (2023) where she built a 5,000 sq/ft indoor playground in a Brooklyn warehouse. _gsrx_vers_1646 (GS 9.7.1 (1646))
