The Objects of Affection Collection (OAC) is a Post-Luxury Conceptual Functional Art (PLCFA) studio and intellectual house founded by Anthropologist of Luxury and Critical Theorist Christopher Banks. Bridging critical anthropology, material culture, and proprietary semantic research infrastructure, OAC produces singular commissioned artifacts governed by custodianship frameworks designed to resist commodification and preserve narrative permanence. By applying the methodologies of critical theory to the production of high-end objects, OAC establishes a new asset class that prioritizes intellectual capital, material singularity, and emotional endurance over industrial scale.
