Hearts Are Trumpsтриптих

John Everett Millais painted 'Hearts Are Trumps' in 1872, portraying three sisters from an affluent Victorian family in an elaborate domestic setting. The work belongs to a period when portraiture increasingly reflected the wealth, taste and social position of Britain’s expanding upper classes. In 'Hearts Are Trumps', this carefully constructed image of status is translated into a digitally fabricated object. Within Industrija, the work connects technological change not to the factory itself, but to the culture of prosperity developing around it.
