The Pope's reign in the Vatican and his dedicated promotion of the Catholic faith is expressed through the sale of artefacts and novelty Object D'Art such as these Pope Lollypops.Over the last few decades, a huge increase in the mass production of religious icons has achieved cult status. The fluorescent plastic Crucifix tokens could be the buttons to press on a Vatican City Jukebox....."My Sweet Lord" or Argent's "God Gave Rock & Roll to You". The photomontage of an ocean of plastic crucifixes against a backdrop of The Carina Grand Nebula in a repeating rhythm..
A sea of plastic junk like a battlefield of corpses.
