Pussy Deck
In the Pussy Deck the boundaries of cuteness have been pushed further. Questioning contemporary image making, the cards parody our perception of perfection and elaborate on our conception of cuteness. By combining traditional hand work techniques and contemporary imagery of cuteness, the opposition of "stereotype" and "individuality" dissolves and reunites in the aesthetic personalities of the pussies. Each of the 36 hypnotic little kittens on pretty idiosyncratic backgrounds reveals its own unique posture in a vividly banal way. They are no longer cards in a deck, but independent beings from a world of total cuteness.
