Dead Stock

“Dead Stock” constructs a skull from hundreds of white butterflies, set against a chaotic red and blue backdrop splashed with Supreme and Louis Vuitton branding. The eyes glow through gaps in the wings where the red Supreme box logo bleeds through, while drips and tags cover every inch of the frame. It’s hype culture rendered as memento mori – a reminder that even the most coveted drops eventually become exactly what the title suggests.

The white butterflies bring a strange purity to the skull despite the noise surrounding it, contrasting against the loud branding chaos beneath. This piece captures the obsession with scarcity and status that drives streetwear culture, and questions what actually survives once the hype moves on.
