Saturn Devouring His Children Gallery

Saturn Devouring His Children is a series of mixed media pieces that appropriate found images and draw influence from modern art movements like Pop. Alone and together the works offer comment on the mediation of violence, political maneuvers, the interests they serve, and the human cost.

The individual pieces may be viewed singly or, as is the artist's preference, installed together as one artwork. Breaking into two sets by size, the larger are shown as aggressors while the smaller works depict the "devoured".
