The Cruelty of Man

It is difficult to adequately express or comment upon the chaotic brutality of humans. We are a species capable of unimaginable violence toward one another, and yet even in times of tremendous adversity, we have the capacity to act with great compassion.

This large scale artwork invites us to gaze at a fractured world of water, fire, and half imagined bodily forms. We see the blue of life swirl and crash against the deep red of blood. We witness the hell of conflict as we are drawn towards, and then repelled in equal measure by our witness to the suffering of innocent and tortured souls.
