Barbara Kruger’s lenticular work My Hero is a striking example of her ability to layer meaning through text, image, and motion. As the viewer shifts position, the lenticular surface flickers between phrases, revealing the instability of perception and the constructed nature of identity. With the words “My Hero” at its core, the piece interrogates notions of admiration, authority, and cultural myth-making. True to Kruger’s style, it is both visually arresting and intellectually incisive - a dynamic commentary on how language shapes our understanding of power, influence, and the personas we choose to elevate.
