Collection: Black Amex Series

The Black Amex Series brings together original Pop Art paintings by Kristin Kossi centered around one of the most recognizable symbols of modern wealth and exclusivity — the American Express Black Card. Combined with iconic pop-culture characters, bold color and Kossi’s urban visual language, the card becomes more than a status symbol: it represents ambition, success and the desire to live without limits. Throughout the series, Kossi plays with the visual language of luxury and consumer culture, placing the Black Card into humorous and unexpected narratives. Familiar characters interact with symbols of money, status and aspiration, reflecting both our fascination with material success and the freedom we often associate with achieving it.

Bold, playful and deliberately excessive, the Black Amex paintings reflect a recurring theme in Kossi’s Pop Art practice — our complicated relationship with money, success and the idea of having no limits.
