The first, Water Burial, touches on the local tragedy of Thomas Hecht who went missing at the beginning of March. I wanted to depict the hectic nature of the weeks surrounding the tragedy, and also show the looming eventuality of what would eventually come to be the conclusion...A dark piece on the immediacy of death, the eventuality for us all, and the way it breaks up our lives when it comes to pass....
slightly unfinished... |
This next piece is about the Trayvon Martin shooting. It's less far along than the previous, but this piece, contrarily, is much more a depiction of the actual scene than the idea or emotion surrounding it. I want it to be a narrative of the event and to lay out what is so impactful about the case...a young, defenseless boy getting shot for walking home from a convenience store...
