The artwork presents a clever homage to Banksy’s iconic “Girl with Balloon”. The artwork is captured in an X-ray view, revealing the intricate inner workings, including a visible shredding mechanism. This design effectively captures the moment of transformation, as the frame’s components suggest the imminent shredding of the artwork itself. Drawing direct parallels to the notorious self-destruction of Banksy’s original piece.
