Are You Happy Now?
This new artwork was made to criticize our consumption habits, and the illusion of happiness we are all trapped in.
We keep “buying happiness”, wrapped up in beautiful shiny packages, but the inside is hollow.
The happy pills are ceramic, painted with automotive paint, and are ready to hang straight on the wall or on a coffee table of shelf. All pills are limited editions of 15 (every color combination and word), signed and numbered by the artist.
