This is not just a mug. It’s a vessel for your caffeine and your contempt. Featuring the phrase “Curator’s Tears” in delicately ironic lettering, it’s ideal for artists who’ve sat through one too many confusing critiques, unpaid studio visits, or emails that start with “We love your work, but…”
Perfect for mornings when your inbox is full of ghosted residencies and vague rejection PDFs. Or afternoons when someone asks, “What’s your work about?” for the fourth time that day.
Material: Ceramic – strong enough to hold both liquids and grudges
Size: [15 oz.] – holds enough for espresso, tea, or unspoken resentment
Finish: Glossy, like the promises of emerging curator panels
Design: “Curator’s Tears” in elegant (read: emotionally manipulative) type
Great gift for:
Disillusioned artists, overworked interns, anyone applying to residencies they won’t get, or your friend who got shortlisted again.
