Artist Statement
Turn on the news and watch how the mainstream media outlets focus on separating our nation. From economic means, religious backgrounds, and skin color they are driving us into segregation. Current political leaders strive to be left or right which limits overall thought and advancement of humanity. I titled this piece the Watcher because I feel this icon, our nation’s symbol of strength, is watching with concern as America dilutes our founding principles. As you observe my work note that the eye and face of the bird are detailed and from there dissipate. This also plays into the concept of weakening and coming undone. We have a choice to make. We can unite and become strong or focus on our differences and fall apart.
The views expressed by our artists in their artist statements do not necessarily represent the views of our art galleries. Artists can be visually expressive but may verbally misrepresent their true intentions or ideas. Please note that we support expression, whether it is controversial or not, but our intention is never to offend.
