About

Why this artist matters now

Peregrine Honig paints works that navigate the psychology of consumption, desire, and social performance through the vocabulary of pop culture and luxury branding. Her paintings interrogate the affective dimensions of aspiration and vulnerability in contemporary consumer culture, examining how status anxiety and sexual identity circulate through branded imagery and commodity aesthetics. Based in San Francisco, Honig's practice addresses the ethical dimensions of visual pleasure and the emotional labor embedded in self-presentation.
