Item: Salinger Straight Fit Chino Pant in distressed khaki

Provenance: Purchased by the artist from the Ralph Lauren Men’s Flagship store, 867 Madison Avenue on a family trip in March, 2024. Authenticated as genuine Ralph Lauren via the authentication QR code. Authenticated as the artist’s pants via digital archive and printed materials. 

Notes: Original, factory distressing in the form of same-material patching, decorative threadwork and hand-applied white paint spatters is augmented with additional paint from the artist’s own hand in pink and black (see catalog photos). It is assumed the pants were worn by the artist as he worked on any one of the “Fallen Kings” series between 2024 and 2032.
