Basquiat Cut and Make Puppet
- Description
I have a hard time encapsulating the work of Neo-Expressionist Jean-Michel Basquiat into a couple sentences-- His life was short and yet, you would not think so from the shear amount of art he created.
His work spoke to his experience of racism in America, cultural (and his own) identity, oppression, colonialism, and his own place in the art world.
If there’s one artist whose biography you should learn, I would say it should be Basquiat.
“[Basquiat was] a star Black artist making images of the Black experience and class struggle that reached a huge audience.”
To go a bit deeper, check out The World of Jean-Michel Basquiat.
Measures 12.5” tall once put together with the included small brass split pin.
Add some string to hang on the wall or use a magnet to place on the refrigerator.
Made in Hastings, United Kingdom

FAQ
Do you accept returns?
My ceramics are like my babies—each one unique and crafted with care. Due to their handmade nature, I'm unable to accept returns at this time. I pour my heart into every piece, and I hope you'll love them as much as I do. Thank you for your understanding and for supporting my small business!
Oh no, my order arrived damaged!
If your order arrives a little worse for wear, don't worry! Just shoot me a message within 3 days of getting your package, and I'll make it right. I pour my heart into each piece, so if anything breaks on its journey to you, I'll send you a replacement. Your happiness with my ceramics means the world to me!
Is it really real gold?
Yes, it is! I hand paint each piece of pottery with real 22k gold luster. It's a delicate process, but it adds incredible luxury to every item. So when you're admiring those shimmering details, you can rest assured, they're the real deal.
