An original acrylic on canvas by Taylor Bystrom. This reversible piece can be displayed in either orientation, revealing two interpretations: ‘Tragedy if you do’ or ‘Tragedy if you don’t’. The choice is yours.
aylor Bystrom is a transgender American Pop Artist whose work explores themes of gender, identity, and sexuality through immersive 3D art and wearable pieces. A 2020 graduate of Goldsmiths, University of London, Bystrom uses his practice to shift societal perceptions of trans people and tell the story of the "created man"—a powerful narrative of transformation, authenticity, and self-expression.
Influenced by Pop Art legend Roy Lichtenstein and echoing the energy of Keith Haring, Bystrom combines bold color palettes and stylized forms with symbolism drawn from mythology and personal experience.
Powerful, playful, and thought-provoking, Bystrom’s work is a celebration of individuality and the ongoing conversation around gender and identity in contemporary art.
