The Tip of the Iceberg
2018
acrylic on panel
14 x 11 inches
The tiny details in the trash heap are my favorite part of this image. In 2008 I painted dead fish and in 2015 I painted human skulls, but the rest of the jumble—including the little plastic soldier—was new. For more about the making of this painting, check out this video.
