PEACE PHRASES
laser engraved blocks, 2019
dimensions vary

The disconnect between the peace phrases and propaganda could not be in more contrast that in my new series. Peace phrases, mostly from the 60’s are spelled out in small children’s alphabet blocks. Engraved over these saying is an equally poignant message put forth by the political establishment. It is difficult to read each one at a glance, it takes time and effort to decipher the two-conflicting statement with no clean winner for the viewer, but maybe a little deeper understanding of the disconnect of both phrases.
