Apocalypse (State Of The Nation) Print

This piece was made in response to the current political, cultural and environmental state of the world. I wanted to show man as both central and vulnerable - his nakedness emphasising this vulnerability, but also reinforced by the collapsing buildings and the cave-dwelling figures in the background. The Green Man, the human personification of Nature, lies crushed underfoot, his outstretched hands tainted with blood - Nature is 'on the ropes'. An ape stretches out his hand in a human-like gesture, a blood-tinged path leads from broken trees, a dead dog lying in its relentless flow. A group of humans stand beyond, corralled by their fear and insecurity in the face of such chaos, clinging together in their united belief against the hostility of the surrounding cataclysm. In such times, people cling to their beliefs, rightly or wrongly, and the world becomes a divided place. And on the horizon, the great black shadow with large white teeth, threatens to engulf it all.... The only hope are the seeds that the central figure lets loose from his hand - the potential for future new growth.
