Second Thoughts
Second Thoughts imagines the calamity of the aging fabric of society and its rapidly eroding wisdom in paintings. Images of vanishing billboards question the roles of so-called gatekeepers of mass communication, in reaction to the disinformation still being spewed out unchecked. The despair of factory interiors visualizes how it feels to be stuck with a roomful of one-point perspective.
