Mom
artist unknown
Next to "Naked Girl Beneath Dead Tree," this is the most psychologically
twisted, I mean, meaningful, painting in my collection. There's the broccoli
and onion trees, the intimidatingly oppressive and institutional looking
building (possibly a prison), and above it all, a breast shaped mountain
complete with a pink nipple. To make absolutely sure you comprehend his
symbolism, the artist has inscribed the word "Mom" on the mountain. Next
image in series is close up. Butch and Madelyn of Squealer Records bought
this in Durham, NC, and donated it to the Panic Research Agency. |
