Untitled Mondo- The Mind of Buddha and Cosmic Orbits

Shading and white space play a major roll in this piece/work to illustrate the historical forms of my education. From character studies, to painting illustrations, to medical drawings and the gore of the NEWS media coverage of wars and conflicts. Current events interest me.

This piece is not ment to be specifically political but plays with the ideas and notions present in the constant struggle of mankind to understand the forces that flow through and around us. The figure of the head in the upper left corner isn't looking at the bricks- the piece is photographed on the bricks just for the purposes of capturing the natural light. The figure is staring off into the space that shapes us all. I prefer a white wall but wanted the effect of seeing the piece outside. I prefer a canvas to graffiti.

Shape, form and gestures construct an interplay of thoughts that feature bodies and people in space. They form an overall abstract dynamic that place dominance on the creatures within us all.
