Mother Population
Oil on canvas
82" x 23.5"
2007

Because of this painting’s immense size, with considerable bias towards height, its position as a major work of mine is difficult to convey to those who have not seen the original. Not only is Mother Population my largest painting, it is also one of the most representational and yet it remains overlooked because its details are so difficult to view online.

Completing Mother Population was a relatively painless task and many smaller paintings took longer to finish. It functions as a dual image, and one can view it either as presented or upside down.

I express my distaste for world religion/mind control/pre-packaged beliefs via the shapes on the blade, through which the world’s population exit once processed into a bloody pulp within the bird feeder. The owl symbol represents the Bohemian Club, an elitist group whose members – including many presidents of the United States Corporation – meet in California annually and partake in lewd banter and Luciferian rituals.
