26. Trippy sketch

Image
  The work consists of several small-scaled graffiti drawings on a plastic sheet which work collaboratively to form one large piece, which guides as a lamp screen. In addition to a range of provocative images, the lamp tributes to several political issues, bringing these issues ´into the light´. These include racist, sexist and homophobic images or iconic figures from politics and popular culture. The work explores the many and varied visual symbols that form part of our shared global culture. Symbols with universal significance, such as the skull or symbols denoting various allegiances ideologies, and positions of power.
