KoS Art Picks 2014: "1 Percent" by James Perkins

One of our favorite new pieces this year; a sharp play on Occupy / economy commentary. This piece is composed of one (1) authentic Rolex Submariner watch, and ninety-nine (99) Counterfeit Rolex Submariner watches, lucite, steel, screws.  "1 Percent" was part of the "Speculation" solo show at Ace Gallery, Beverly Hills earlier this year.

Stutterheim Blå Raincoat

"With its double welded seams the Stockholm raincoat quotes my grandfathers original raincoat. It has no separate lining, just the rubberized thick cotton, making it a leaner version of the Arholma. Here in a dark navy blue with silver buttons and hemp strings."-
