The wall text accompanying Warhol’s small canvas with 12 electric-blue crucifixes silkscreened on a black background suggests that the repetition of crosses mirrors his Campbell’s soup cans, with the religious icon serving as “a commodity to be bought and sold.”

A year ago, if anyone had told Toronto designer Kingi Carpenter she would soon be silkscreening a U. S. president onto dresses, hoodies and scarves, she would have laughed in their face.
