THE END

THE END is a composition of multiple panels and imagery mirroring the artist's personal and inner chaotic reactions due to our collective consumption of information regarding the climate crisis. From fake, good, or bad news and the lack of global action compounded with the rumination of the inevitable END not far away, the artist uses this series to discuss the constant intake of media, accompanied by a sense of helplessness and overwhelm. Former Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard once noted this general feeling of too much as an "all you can eat-media-buffet." In this work, the artist turns feelings of despair into a form of hysteria, a comic release, juxtaposing whimsical imageries with darker B&W iconography from the 1950s, when consumerism was at its height. Indulging in an inevitable sense of fatalism, the artist chooses to use bright colors as an antidote to general delirium.
