"Cali Classic #2", Acrylic & mixed media on canvas, 30x40in, 2024

California is full of Classical and Baroque architecture, most of it was made fairly recently. Detached from the geographical and political contexts that shaped these structures, they live in a comfortable stasis where entropy and struggle have yet to touch them. These pieces turns those buildings, statues, and facades into an ornately jumbled mess. Is it a pile of rubble or a crazy palace?
