2008
2008... A YEAR THE BIGGEST FINANCIAL FRAUD EVER COMMITTED UNVEILED ITSELF TO THE WORLD. ONLY, TO THIS DAY, NO ONE HAS PAID THE PRICE, BUT THE PAWNS THAT WERE USED....THE PEOPLE! GOOD, HARD WORKING PEOPLE! BETRAYAL,DENIAL AND CHEATING. THIS, THE AMERICA'S BANKs REPRESENT, WITHOUT REMORSE, OR ADMITTING. THEY HAVE PLAYED A GAME THAT HAS BECOME A REAL LIFE TRAGEDY! NEVER TO BE EXCUSED FROM OUR MINDS.
USING MIXED MEDIA,REAL WALL STREET JOURNAL STATS, AMERICAN BOARD GAME GRAPHICS,MASTER DRAWINGS. MY WORK HAS BEEN COMBINED TO TELL A STORY. A METAPHORICAL MEANING THAT WILL UNVEIL ITSELF DIFFERENTLY FOR EVERY PERSON,BUT HAVE THE SAME REALITY.
THAT IS...
WE THE PEOPLE, HAVE BEEN TAKEN FOR A FOOL AND PERSISTED IN OUR OWN FOLLIE. THE BANKS, AND THEIR BOARDS, HAVE COMMITTED HORRIFIC CRIMES. WHILST CHANGING THE RULES OF THE GAME ALONG THE WAY. DRIVEN BY GREED,POWER, EGO, AND GLOBALIZATION OF THE FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS WE ONCE TRUSTED.
WITHIN THE PAINTINGS AND THEIR TITLES ARE THE USE OF LATIN ( COMING FROM OUR OWN DOLLAR) AND IT'S QUESTIONABLE INTEGRITY. IT HAS A VIRTUE VERSUS VICE IDEAL. CHEAT,LIE, AND WIN AT ALL COSTS. THE DRIVE. BEHIND THE PLAYFUL FRONT. AS DID THE BANKS PLAY. THIS SERIES IS MY EFFORT TO MAKE AWARE WHAT WE ALL KNOW TO BE TRUE. WE HAVE BEEN HAD. LIED TO. AND DESPITE OUR MISFORTUNE. WE WORK, LIVE AND MOVE ON IN THE GAME OF LIFE. WHAT WOULD I BE AS AN ARTIST IF I DID NOT DOCUMENT,IN MY OWN WAY. HISTORY THAT HAS EFFECTED EVERY PERSON ON THE PLANET IN SOME WAY?
