This artwork depicts Endless’ iconic Chanel perfume bottle, which represents the artists’ ‘brand worship’ ethos. Inside the bottle, Endless has portrayed imagery from classic renaissance paintings, religious iconography and recognisable modern branding, commenting on modern society’s worship of brands and luxury goods. The classic imagery inside the bottle contrasts with the contemporary feel the rest of the painting reveals, such as layered writing, graffiti style spray paint drips and vivid colours. Endless has used intricate hand-cut stencil work with spray paint, acrylic and gold glitter to create this painting.
