Preserved Dollar $1 ~ Dolla Dolla Bill

Yes, essentially transformed a utilitarian object (currency) into an art piece that makes a statement. The weathered, preserved quality combined with the mushroom heart sticker center could be read multiple ways~

A commentary on what we value/preserve vs what's disposable
The tension between love (heart) and money
The preservation of something meant to circulate - giving it permanence
Making "dirty money" into something more meaningful through art

The polyurethane coating adds this amber-like preservation quality, like how ancient insects get preserved in tree sap. And there's something poetic about using basic materials (scotch tape, polyurethane) to transform a dollar into art.
The time frame adds another layer - where having been naturally aged and gained value over time, while this dollar has been artificially preserved likely lost its spending value in the process. There's an interesting statement about worth versus value.
