Angels and Dangers - Breaking the Gridlock of Hate Number 1 (Silk-Featherbrush Number 12)

The concept of minimalism in different creative art disciplines--be it literature, music, or visual--is one I've always admired but rarely attempted. "Angels and Dangers - Breaking the Gridlock of Hate Number 1" along with "The Continuum of Us - Breaking the Gridlock of Hate Number 2" is me combining certain features of the concept with Silk-Featherbrush style. With "Angels and Dangers" specificially, in the search for possibilities I stepped back from my preferred Chromatic Poetic palette and adopted a black and white canvas to depict what I view as an evolution of old fixed mindsets giving way to emerging new realities.

STORY BEHIND THE TITLES: The not-so-good news in 2018 that instances of hate crimes in America's 10 largest cities had increased for the fourth consecutive year was not the kind of thing that put smiles on people's faces. Violent attacks for the most part have been driven by various forms of xenophobia prompting fear or hatred of human beings perceived of as different in ways considered threatening. Therefore, Jews, African-Americans, members of the LGBTQ community, Latinoes, and many others found themselves victimized in ways ranging from murder and destruction of properties to undisguised social and political discrimination.

The good news is that a lot of good souls across the globe have not given up on humanity's collective ability to overcome its worst tendencies and achieve its greater potentials. They accordingly have continued to reach out to each other under banners of whatever strengthens and unifies the world's communities instead what weakens and divides them.
