content: Tough Case for Apple iPhone 8 Plus. In this series of work, titled Side Dimes, Mikayla Lapierre remixes 18th and 19th century European paintings with pop culture references. The works are digitally painted on the reproductions of the original paintings. https://blog.society6.com/making-old-things-new-a-chat-with-side-dimes-creator-mikayla-lapierre/ . The mobile phone/cellphone case is shiny black on the exterior with a full color print, in stark relief, of an old painting depicting a young woman in formal dress, typical of classical portraiture, modified by the addition of a bubblegum bubble to make it appear the woman is blowing a bubble. The case liner is a matte black silicone frame. Portals created in the case provide access to phone buttons and plugs.
