"Cultural Currency" explores the innovative ways artists use money as a medium to expand its worth beyond a given denomination. Each of the artists featured investigates preconceived definitions of monetary value, meticulously repurposing bills and coins into exquisite, precise artworks. Universally relevant, humorous and, at times, critical, "Cultural Currency" asks viewers to consider how the definition of currency can be reshaped into a multifaceted object steeped in meaning and intrigue.
