Arty-Fact: The cartoon characters of your childhood, like you, have grown up. They’ve lived through trauma, battled addiction, found Jesus, entertained deviant fantasies—and just like you, they’re still working on it.
This is the provocative world built over 30 years by Australian pop artist Ben Frost. His hybrid art fuses the clean aesthetics of pop art—flat colours, iconic branding, and cartoon imagery—with a jarring social critique that cuts deep. Like the pharmaceuticals that often feature in his artwork, Ben's paintings sooth and sicken in equal measure, inviting the viewer to confront the contradictions of modern life.
"Cocaine (Justonemorebump)" is no exception.
