Ultraviolence, drugs, and giant robots fueled with the attitude of a nuclear culture. My current work is concentrated in a universe where the smoke filled city streets are patrolled by robots with an appetite for small children and life is utterly horrible. Like a cartoon gone awry, my Die-O-Ramas are a multi-layered acrylic view into another world. My current series is the first of three and depicts the said cities and the children who o.d., fight, die, and dwell there. The children's lives are pointless, their seemingly only existance being that of a food source for the towering steel gods. None of the children like each other and try as they might to lead ordinary lives, the constant threat of being ripped apart from limb to limb at any point in time is an awful hinderance. Other reoccuring themes in my work include various subcultures, cult movies, chemical warfare, monsters, sci-fi, exploding heads, politics, satanism, oppression, suicide, and the repercussions of nuclear energy.
