The War Boutique's provocative role within society is explicated by his position as designer of uniforms for both police and military forces around the world. Its works have been displayed at the Bristol Museum, The Lighthouse in Glasgow, Tate Britain, Tate Modern and The British Museum.
'Boom' is covered with pink diamond dust, which paraphrases the expensiveness of war and its instruments. A reflection on the logic of the 21st century, this work echoes street art as well as pop art, in a fusion of Lichtenstein and Banksy.
