This started as a drawing about graphs and bar charts re covid, economic growth and pictorial data in general. It became a container ship. A stinking Leviathan, courier of materialist tat, toxic waste and carbon manned by slave crews. But here it is delivering toxic, manipulated data to justify the decisions of a government that does not believe in society or social conscience. It is the biggest drawing i have done for a while. The use of masking tape is like the use of stone – I make decisions on what to keep and what to remove.
On a non-material level its the stinking vessel called Body powered by its effluent ego engine.
