Ben Frost is an Australian contemporary artist born in 1975 who has gained international recognition for his bold, irreverent Pop Art that subverts mainstream media iconography. Based in Melbourne, Frost creates kaleidoscopic mash-up paintings that draw inspiration from graffiti, collage, photorealism, and sign-writing techniques. His instantly recognizable style features everyday consumer products and beloved childhood characters recontextualized in provocative scenarios that critique consumer culture and advertising.
Frost's work challenges Western cultural norms through confrontational imagery, often depicting familiar mascots like Super Mario, Bart Simpson, and Pikachu in compromising situations that explore themes of addiction, hyper-consumerism, and the darker side of commercialism. His paintings frequently utilize packaging surfaces, from McDonald's fry containers to luxury fashion bags, creating a tension between fast-food accessibility and high-end status symbols.
Educated at Queensland College of Art, Frost has exhibited internationally for over two decades with solo shows in London, New York, Sydney, Los Angeles, Toronto, Singapore, Berlin, Miami, and San Francisco. His controversial 2000 exhibition "Ben Frost is Dead" made national news when he faked his own death. Notable collaborations include working with Jeremy Scott for Moschino's Fall/Winter 2018 capsule collection and partnering with Carolina Herrera for a limited edition fragrance release. Frost also founded Stupid Krap, a platform promoting Australian artists globally, and established Paste-Modernism, the world's largest paste-up festival.
