oil and wax and Wall Street Journal on framed panel
My Global City Babel Series incorporates The Tower of Babel by Pieter Bruegel. Here this motif is painted over financial news from the WallStreet Journal with the headline, “Gold Moves Lower.”
You have built on sand…
‘Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming on you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion wil be evidence against you. You have laid up treasure in the last days….you have condemned and murdered the righteous person. He does not resist you. James 5
