Thom Thom Billboard Art

"French urban artist Thom Thom aka Hephaestus or Thomas Louis Jacques Schmitt is not a typical street artist, working only on billboards, he cut, slashed, sliced, and re-stuck for reorganizing the advertising message to ennoble it and upgrade it into street art. The consumerist publicity is first violently mutilated to be then metamorphosed into committed artwork."

Consumerism

Art by David Welch. Consumerism.

"My work is a response to this contemporary consumer milieu. By treating artifacts of consumer culture as readymades, I create assemblages to form pseudo monuments, or totems, that serve as precarious externalizations of culture as social biography. The totems speak of accumulation and materiality and encourage debate about consumption, media, class, gender and the ways in which we feel compelled to consume."
