edition on 6 PC only ! // Cloned Pistachio Dog with Plastic Boots by William Sweetlove is a resin sculpture from 2008 that humorously combines natural and artificial elements. The piece features a dog cast in a pastel pistachio-green color, standing in an exaggerated pose with its legs clad in oversized plastic boots. Sweetlove's work often addresses themes of environmentalism and consumer culture, using cloned animals and synthetic materials to comment on humanity's impact on nature. The surreal, playful design—paired with the unnatural color and boots—invites viewers to question notions of cloning, adaptation, and the artificial imposition of human attributes on animals. Limited to an edition of only six pieces, this sculpture exemplifies Sweetlove’s unique blend of wit and social critique.

What is Kitsch?
Kitsch is a term used to describe cheap, commercial, sentimental, or vulgar art and objects commonly associated with popular culture. The word is borrowed from German, where it originally means trash. Since the 1920s, kitsch has been used to denote the opposite of high art, often implying that the work lacks sophistication or artistic merit.
