FAHD BLESS AMERICA
This is one of a series of collage images recently shown in New Haven, CT and carried through the streets of Washington. The strongest influence to these works are the unnamed thousands who have expressed political opinion through the rapid form of free speech that is collage. Please feel free to copy and distribute.
FAHD BLESS AMERICA Pictured at top are George W Bush and Crown Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia.
Crown Prince Abdullah was appointed by his brother, King Fahd, to be the Deputy Prime Minister and de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia, one of the top sources of oil for the United States.
George W Bush entered the White House in 2001, despite confusing circumstances concluding the Florida election. These circumstances include the purging of approximately 91,000 eligible voters by the Florida Secretary of State, and also include an unprecedented, unsigned opinion from a portion of the Supreme Court bringing vote clarification to a halt.
Pictured at center is a gasoline pump nozzle.
Pictured at bottom is a warped version of Eddie Adams 1968 "Murder of a Vietcong by Saigon Police Chief."
Through apposition of these images I hope to draw a relationship between political power, energy industry, strategic means, the violence used to preserve status quo, and the resultant "collateral" but meaningful human suffering.
