Tribes Diptych 2016 Graphite pencil on Twinrocker handmade paper, 48H x 68W inches.
Tribes references the politically weaponized aggression and alienation of our present moment through the the visual deployment of that most ancient of phallic symbols; the animal horn. Surging upwards through these forms are the energies of discordant communication, represented here by asemic writing, bursting forth in smoldering emissions on the perceived Others—an ominous mergence.
