The Conscience of the Rich, 2021

collage

11.75 x 11.75 inches

When I found the book title, I imagined what the conscience of the rich might look like and envisaged a very large black hole to represent my belief that they have no conscience. The biggest gap in the world is between the rich and the poor. In the collage, there is a group of onlookers who can see what is happening. The many can make change, the gap can be bridged, it is up to us to make that happen.
