All my life I've heard people and groups of people
complain how their social, ethic or even sexual orientation has been persecuted and
prosecuted by the establishment, and have always wondered how that could be
visualised,
and made relevant and, yes, even mocked in a way. What came to mind were two common
sayings. First, that we all have our crosses to bare and, second, Andy Wahol’s
"Everyone is famous for 15 minutes". I have taken both and come up with “Fifteen
minutes on the Cross." |
I have found crucifixion
to be a very common theme in art. I believe I can use some of that
imagery, or look, to make my point.
I am looking for people to pose
showing the burden, the guilt and suffering that has been imposed on them, and who feel
the need for their Fifteen Minutes.
