The work consists of a modified copy of Michelle Obama's bestselling memoir, Becoming, published in November 2018. Drawing on the cartoon figure's search for identity in celebrity culture, Who's silhouette is superimposed on Obama's portrait. Presented in a Plexiglas case, the display of the object has a museum-like quality.
