Emblem of an Abstract Riot no.2 by Patrick Wong

Patrick Wong has announced the release of his latest resin sculpture entitled “Emblem of an Abstract Riot no.2”.

It is also the followup piece to the 2015 released resin sculpture “Emblem of an Abstract Riot”.

Cast in solid urethane resin and features an extinguished wick within a molotov cocktail, the piece riffs on The Simpsons cartoon with various elements appropriated directly from the show. “Emblem of an Abstract Riot no.2” measures 6 x 6 x 3.75 inches. It’s available to order through the artist’s webshop (linked above), with handcrafted resin art-multiples priced at $200.00 each.
