Follow the River to its Source, Neocolonialism. Drawing

This piece was the last in the Follow the River to its Source series that I completed while tracing the origins of modern capitalism to the present day. This piece concerns itself with the transition from from Colonialism to Neocolonialism, still perpetrated in the same countries by some of the same companies yet now done through diffused means. The piece eludes to it through the inclusion of portraits of the perpetrators from the foreign backed dictators of the 50's 60's and 70's to the western leaders like Tony Blair whose prosecution and subsequent profiteering of the Iraq War is a blatant example of the worst excesses of the crimes still inflicted on "developing" countries by those in the west. Once again I have used varied styles of drawing and collage to add to the configuration of the completed piece.
