For the Brooklyn Century Vase, Roberto Lugo (@robertolugowithoutwax) reinterprets the iconic Century Vase designed by Karl Mueller, which showcased an idealized representation of American identity at the US Centennial Exhibition of 1876. Lugo embraces the over-the-top style of the original—including dynamic gilded eagles and "mounted" porcelain animal heads—but changes what stories are being upheld and celebrated. For example, George Washington's profile is replaced with portraits of the Notorious B.I.G. and Jackie Robinson. Lugo's goal isn't to idealize the borough, however. He notes, "Brooklyn, like the United States, has a complicated history, one that should be told—and represented." #reflectionsonliberty ⁠⠀
