Mars Sigler — Time Flies (Protest in mixed media)

Here is a little construction Mars made a couple years ago when he was about seven years old. This is a recent picture. Like many artists before, Mars is using his art to comment on the oppression in the world around him. In this case, the oppression was a time limit for playing video games. A standard kitchen timer became the enforcer. By applying wings to the enforcer the artist has reshaped this symbol of his oppression into something of visual interest, even beauty.
