This artwork was inspired by my reaction to Australia Post, a government-owned entity, venturing into the retail market by selling consumable goods such as flowers, cameras, record players, and kitchen appliances. I was appalled by this shift, especially as stamp prices continued to rise, seemingly to support the government’s competition with other retailers.

In this piece, I depict various retail goods alongside price tags, featuring Rosie the Riveter on the stamps. The juxtaposition serves as a commentary on the role of the government, questioning whether it should focus on governance rather than competing in the retail sector.
