War Crimes, 46" H x 50" W

Embroidery and heat transfers on silk, satin, brocade, and velvet. 

War Crimes uses text meant to prohibit war crimes and torture found in four 18th - 20th century sources: the US Constitution, Geneva Convention, Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the Nuremberg Charter.

By referencing words from these historic public documents, the issue is revealed as universal and almost an inevitable circumstance of war. Review in Columbus ALIVE!
