, b. 1975

Ben Frost's bold and whimsical artworks, spanning paintings, prints, and a diverse array of merchandise like pillows and T-shirts, serve as a witty critique of contemporary consumerism. His creative vision ingeniously transforms prescription drug packaging into canvases adorned with iconic cartoon characters, while familiar symbols such as the McDonald’s arches or the American flag are playfully juxtaposed with sinister movie-villain faces. Hailing from Australia, Frost has showcased his provocative pieces in prominent cities worldwide, from London and New York to Los Angeles, Singapore, Berlin, and Miami. Notably, his collaborations with esteemed fashion houses like Moschino and Carolina Herrera underscore his influence beyond the realm of traditional art. Through his confrontational approach, Frost dismantles the sedative allure of advertising, offering a refreshing perspective that challenges the status quo.
