6.50 × 2.875 in
Hand-cut International Currency Collage on Archival PaperCurrency is where violence becomes abstracted.
This work enacts imperialism in every essence of the word:
The U.S. Dollar dominates the structural frame.
It’s then occupied and overwritten with Venezuelan Bolivar.
Fragments and layers are collapsed and debased visually.
And I hold the ultimate authority over this work. To burn, to cherish, to value.
A question I pose to those in appreciation, confusion, or anger:
At what point does ‘National Interest’ become a euphemism for entitlement?
