A Bold Intersection of Fashion, Fantasy, and Fearless Design
AUSTIN, TX — April 15, 2025 — Wexel Art, the Austin-based art brand known for curating bold, contemporary pieces with a twist, is thrilled to announce the debut of Medusa, an original work by rising artist MILKDADD during High Point Market. Medusa draws inspiration from the glamorous, the dangerous, and the mythical — fusing high fashion, street culture, and the legendary femme power of the Gorgon herself.
In true MILKDADD style, Medusa defies classification. The piece pulses with surreal detail and unexpected textures, revealing layers of meaning — and mischief — upon closer inspection. From its hypnotic color palette to its maximalist choice of platform shoes, Medusa commands attention and dares the viewer to look deeper.
One of the piece’s most distinctive features? A collection of stylish rabbits, each draped in gilded chokers — a subtle yet striking nod to both couture and control. Their eyes glint with intention, and their presence uncanny. The embellishments are meticulous: delicate chain links, microbeading, and pink fur that shimmers .
“This is a piece about temptation and transformation,” says artist, MILKDADD. “It’s a beautiful juxtaposition— where the viewer feels both seduced and slightly on edge. That’s what Medusa was. And that’s what fashion is for me.”
Medusa marks the beginning of a bold new chapter in Wexel Art’s growing roster of original works. Known for their acrylic frames and commitment to elevating both emerging and established artists, Wexel Art continues to push boundaries in how and where art lives.
“This isn’t just a piece of art,” says Natasha McRee, founder of Wexel Art. “It’s a conversation starter, a head-turner, and a pure embodiment of our mission: to celebrate creativity that challenges convention.”
Medusa will be displayed at High Point Market beginning this April 24th at Wexel Art's showroom in Interhall IH508.
