RMSr.2 - Hear No Evil
1968 - 2020
Mixed media on a vintage postcard
10.5 x 15.5cm
A picturesque backlot, corporate execs, and lush rolling trees present a romantic portrayal of mid-century domestic prosperity far removed from the anxieties, inequalities, and infrastructural shortcomings of our time. RMSr.2- Hear No Evil delves into a societal proclivity to embrace the good while disregarding inconvenient truths, an attribute alluded to by the phrase, "the Deaf People." Depicted in courier, a font-type used commonly by screenwriters, the painting reveals an underlying notion of fiction within one's recollection of the past and the inherent folly of a future built on nostalgia.
