The Rat’s Address Vs. The People

This artwork features an anthropomorphic rat dressed in a sharp navy blue business suit and tie, standing at a wooden podium as if delivering a public address. He is surrounded by a large group of identical-looking women, all of whom have vibrant purple bobs, dramatic eye makeup, and black chokers. These women are dressed in strapless pink mini-dresses paired with purple leather-style jackets and black lace-up combat boots.

The scene takes place outdoors in London, with the unmistakable Gothic architecture of the Houses of Parliament and the Big Ben clock tower rising in the background under a pale yellow sky. The clean lines, bold colors, and repetitive use of the same female character create a surreal, graphic effect that suggests themes of political messaging, mass-produced identity, and the absurdity of public discourse.
