In my arms 2008, print on canvas
The His obsession with war and violence are made manifest with his tongue in cheek inversions of meaning, and although they arouse some discomfort; they simultaneously evoke laughter and a sly recognition of his true intent. Through dislocation, he bypasses the viewer's initial response of appreciating beauty, and arouses a second tier of meaning which incorporates the tragedy of history and survival. www.ericrobertparnes.com
