Politicide

A social commentary on the political climate and its leading participants.

2016

Politicide is a triptych illustration depicting the ephemeral status of a politician. The series shows that like celebrities, politicians could only affect the status quo for so long until one replaces them. Every figure is a melted waxy distortion to convey the fleeting nature of their status. Like a candle, every moment burns in a passionate fire until they inevitably melt away.
