 The Bullet Holes of Peace (Vs. 1 & 2)
 c. Michael St.Mark & Art Axis 2014

Digital collage featuring images from WW1 and the Iraq war impregnated with green holes,
green being the opposite (contrasting ) color to (blood) red; sybolizing the acute need for
radical change in consciousnessness in humanity; for each individual to be shot with “bullets
of peace”.

Context
_______________________________________________________________________________________

Dada was founded in Zurich in 1916 essentially as a protest movement against the horrors
of World War 1 – a totally unnecessary conflict, killing millions and sparked by corrupt politicians
brainwashing the masses into active participation. By-passing WW2, a war that was legitimate of
course in that Hitler was aggressively threatening the entire world…and on to the Iraq debacle
that had strong echoes of
similar pointlessness and mass destruction as WW1; precipitated
by two cowardly and despicable leaders
backed by morally bankrupt Parliamentary / Capitol Hill
MPs / Senators  – each one motivated by unspoken promise of personal career-advancement.

.
Here, in this penultimate Work, Dada goes full circle; back to its core roots of anti-war expression,
with almost 100 years now gone by and sadly with addition of the heinous war crime that was the
Iraq invasion.
