Raging Bull
From the series “Meet your Meat” (2012)
In the intersection of gaze and canvas, a vivid spark ignites—fiery challenge meets indomitable spirit. Here stands the 'Raging Bull', not just a creature, but a narrative wrought from the heart of defiance, with the artist subtly etched within its legacy.
Wall Street's beast unleashed
Reflecting on a decade of artistic provocation with "Raging Bull" – my raw depiction of Wall Street’s turmoil post-2008 and a stark commentary on our consumption from the "Meet Your Meat" series. Inspired by Foer's "Eating Animals," this piece is a collision of finance and flesh, challenging the viewer to confront the commodification of both bulls and beef. In 2012, the painting's debut echoed the financial chaos of the times. Ten years later, donning the same black dress, I stand before it again, the piece undiminished in its potency, a reminder of our enduring dance with greed and consumption.
Bulls of Contrast: Power and Provenance
From Urban Intensity to Provencal Elegance
From the forceful strokes of the 'Raging Bull'—a commanding acrylic piece born amidst the urban pulse of the U.S., valued at the premium it commands—to the quartet of Camargue gouache bulls, each a splash of Provencal color and light, affordably offered. This collection marries the intensity of a statement piece with the accessible charm of pastoral sketches, encapsulating diverse expressions from two worlds united by the vigor of the bull.
