verbal abuse Series (artist statement)

Artist Statement: Verbal Abuse series

Verbal abuse is a worldwide plague affecting the core of society. This series brings attention to that plight and speaks out on behalf of others who cannot or will not.

These are social statements created using acrylics and mixed media collage with found objects. Like the act of verbal abuse, there are many dual messages and hidden meanings in the voices that cry out from the art. Will these voices be heard before it is too late? Only time will tell.
