Squid Game - The Piggybank - PepArt (1985)
“The Piggybank Prize Fund” – Pop Art Piggy Bank Sculpture Inspired by Squid Game
A provocative blend of satire, sculpture, and streaming culture, “The Prize Fund” is a one-of-a-kind pop art object that transforms the humble piggy bank into a commentary on greed and survival. Covered entirely in miniature replicas of the 50,000 South Korean won banknote, this rounded form reflects the central symbol of desperation and reward from the global Netflix phenomenon Squid Game.
Standing approximately 18 cm tall and wide, the sculpture is crowned with three unmistakable red-hooded game guards, each marked with the iconic circle, square, and triangle symbols. These stylized figures evoke the chilling order and anonymity of the show’s dystopian game world, now humorously repurposed atop a mountain of cash.
This handmade work fuses Squid Game iconography with the bold, consumer-conscious energy of Pop Art—perfect for collectors of contemporary culture, fans of subversive art, or anyone drawn to the dark glamour of money and media.
