The New American Dream Acrylic Paint 3' x 4' 2020
The first image shows the overall view of the painting as a whole. You can take note in the fact some people are wearing masks while some people are not. The idea here is that only people progressed into the workforce can wear these masks which are either white or blue, signifying white collar or blue collared workers.
This painting highlights the shortcomings of Late Capitalism by showing how big systems affect us all through major topics including Big Pharma, Lean-staffing, Housing Crisis', Corrupt corporations and more. The piece also displays the idea of our worth today being largely based off how much we can produce and the issues that come with that way of thinking.
