Kidult, a well-renowned French graffiti artist, recently exposed his 'Pax Americana' project.

Consisting of posters which star Donald Trump wearing an iconic Supreme-branded t-shirt, Kidult considers the Republican candidate's consumerist role, speaking to a culture that's obsessed with symbols of status -- which the bold Supreme logo is considered to be a part of. It's reported that the image Donald Trump's face is superimposed on comes from a photo shoot that the acclaimed Terry Richardson had previously done for the brand.

The resulting posters from Kidult's Pax Americana project can be found in a number of major cities -- with Tokyo, Paris and New York in the mix. Along with the image of the poster on his Instagram account, Kidult includes the caption "Make america sh*t again," making clear his opinion on the Republican candidate.
