Drunk

After witnessing how excessive drinking destroyed a loving family, I recognized the harm alcohol inflicts on both the individual and others. Through breaking and splashing paint on the canvas, I express the destructive power of alcohol. The black paint slashing across the canvas symbolizes the uncontrollable emotions that follow drinking. This piece also responds to the conflicts caused by alcohol abuse. The splattered paint represents the victim’s blood after being struck by the bottle. The shattered bottle on the canvas reflects the violence and destruction caused by drinking, illustrating how lives and families are broken in the wake of such tragedy.
