Artwork Description:

Beside the opposing contrast, of that which is organic and free-flowing as to that which is precisely contrived and highly structured, ideas of: 'we the people', 'democracy' and language are also at work here. While thinking of the ancient Greek civilization of Corinth, the craddle of Democracy, I also think of the language of the masses (not an unusual description of grafitti or tagging) and how a blood-red message of anger scrawled across a symbol of power might be a fortelling of the fall of a great civilization. The corinthian columns seem to culminate into what might be viewed as the point of a scribes writing instrument. Consider the possible symbolic meanings of the colors white and red in the above stated contexts. This is the most recent work in the 'Synergies of Confluence' series.
