“Conscious Cleansing” 40″X30″ (acrylic+paint pens on canvas)
In this most recent depiction, set on an icy shelf, Lake Michigan in a winter ice phase. Frozen waves shelfing themselves. A struggle of inward duality over good and evil, the minds constant battles throughout life. We find sometimes that to realize things we have to suffer and others make us aware of what were doing wrong or praise us for things we do right. The two anti-Herms hoover with butterfly wings and eight limbs to support there grotesque movements as they battle themselves, resolving inner conflicts. Each Herm has an anti-herm. The anti-Herm manipulates its specimen
, breaking open the spires, spurting it’s black oil in an conscious cleaning act to the face of the other Herm. Nasty old Russian herm woman on the beach would take oversized trash bags to the lake and capture seagulls and urban birds to barbeque.
