“Exchanged for Power” – The Lucky Strike Collection

48” x 36” x 1”

Mixed media on Canvas

This commanding work takes the familiar $100 bill and elevates it into a powerful meditation on currency, power, and what we trade for influence. Benjamin Franklin gazes forward amid the detailed engravings of the note, all set against a glowing orange-red field that shifts in intensity.

Created with digitally generated line halftone screen printing on thin canvas, the piece features subtle hand-painted textures and a rich gradient background. Presented in a clean black aluminum frame, it balances graphic precision with tactile presence.

Exchanged for Power explores themes of wealth, authority, ambition, and transaction — core ideas within The Lucky Strike collection. Its strong visual impact and conceptual edge make it ideal for collectors drawn to works that provoke conversation about value and risk.”
