“Hamburger Head” | Retro Feminist Surrealist Collage Art | by Joan Seed
A love letter from joan
Darling,
Once upon a time, the head was a temple. Now, apparently, it’s a drive-thru. In Hamburger Head, I’ve crowned my heroine not with jewels or laurels, but with a double stack of grease-soaked ambition. She’s America’s Mona Lisa—if the Louvre had a deep fryer.
Do I mock, or do I mourn? Both, sweetheart. That’s the beauty of cholesterol chic: it’s satire you can almost taste. And unlike the burger, this won’t spoil by morning.
Love,
Joan

Description
“Hamburger Head” is Joan Seed’s witty and satirical ode to consumer culture, a surrealist portrait where a woman’s face is eclipsed by a towering double cheeseburger. Bold, absurd, and uncomfortably true, the work captures mid-century retro style with a biting commentary on desire, excess, and identity.
Perfect for interior designers seeking statement art, collectors with a taste for irony, and galleries exploring pop surrealism, this piece fuses nostalgia with dark humor in a way that is quintessentially Joan Seed.
