Lot Essay

Commenting on the rampant consumerism and product fetishism the artist himself observes in contemporary society, Wiyoga Muhardanto is recognized for producing three dimensional works that makes parody of these social phenomena. Archaeological Fact of GUCCI meshes military and archaeological references with the world of luxury to produce an eloquent question on the future in a world of consumerism.
