THE BURDEN OF POWER IS NEVER LIGHT
2016
​
Brands tagged to skateboarding have often focused on sales instead of the sport, creating limitations, setting boundaries and governing its progress.
 
In this interactive piece, skateboarding culture is represented by the skateboard decks, with labeled with iconic, established brands. These labels are subverted and retagged to amplify the degeneration of society by consumerism, which is shadowing skate culture. The Burden of Power is Never Light is the delivery of a secret message.
