Original artwork description:

Filler on board, oak panel
My works are not painted but cast in oak panels using standard wall filler.

This work is also part of a diptych titled Respiratory Governance together with #546 Re Public. Here, the imprints cluster along the edges. It’s about how the shifts between liberal majority and authoritarian oligarchic rule can be viewed as a movement of breath. None of these modes of governance changes society’s foundation in the ideology of capitalism. Both claim to rule in the name of the people, but instead, they secure the rule of the few and the mighty. What is power? Power is the availability of resources. It’s a matter of economics - of money. People will only have power when it’s equally distributed. We must abolish wealth and poverty to create a truly free and democratic society.
