REEL GUN
Acrylic and mixed media on canvas with .925 sterling silver and affixed grip.
30 x 30 in. (76.2 x 76.2 cm)
Reel Gun is a constructivism styled piece using a dabbing technique over opaque polygons to give the illusion of texture. Focalized within the composition, a turn of the century film reel projector firearm can be observed. The piece uses representations and the combination of two mechanical devices, contrasting in their functions, to display the theme of the emotional power of cinematic media. Themes such of stereotypes, control and corruption are included, strengthening the overall message. .925 sterling silver inserted within the screw holes of the grip represent the slotted screws used in the assembly of firearms.
