Contemporary interpretations of an American icon
The Wilson Heritage Works Altered State Collection reimagines the familiar portrait of John F. Kennedy through contemporary art.
Using genuine Kennedy half dollars as the canvas, each design explores a different visual idea—from color, motion, and mid-century imagery to memory, abstraction, and negative space.
The complete collection includes nine original designs:
- 1964 Analog
- CMYKennedy
- Elemental
- Fluid State
- Mid-Century Atomic
- Private Horizon
- Spectral Ascent
- The American Promise
- Negative Space
Each design has its own story and artistic interpretation.
