Description

The inspiration for this piece was the atrocities conducted by ISIS, and specifically the execution by "fire" of a Jordanian pilot on 3rd January 2015. The reference to Goya's The Third of May 1808 in the title and within the painting speaks to the "endless" nature of conflict. The IPAD showing a YouTube clip of the execution is a reflection on the voyeuristic way in which conflict is increasingly becoming "entertainment".
