Work of Art finalist Peregrine Honig takes our intertwined obsessions with youth, fashion, and celebrity, and turns them into quirky, unsettling art.
Perhaps Kansas City’s best-known art-world export (thanks to her star turn on the Bravo reality show), Honig makes paintings, sculptural installations, and performative, fashion-based projects that combine folk-art inflections and a childlike love of color, cuteness, and baby animals with a worldly, satirical voice that’s not afraid to get profound, funny, and even scatological.

Work of Art: The Final Three

Peregrine was robbed. Much more potential and vision displayed here than in Abdi’s work — though he came back strong with his final installation, overall he was very spotty on the challenges.
Anchor Baby is so unbelievably good it physically hurts me to look at it!
Cliched and craptacular.
What a fresh eye and bright mind.
