BAD BLOOD PAINTING

this was don by Mary Eve Minieka

These painting combine praying plaster hands firmly attached to canvas by intravenous plastic feeding tubes.
The canvas, hands and tubes are aggressively covered with crimson red oil paint.
The paintings were inspired by the shortage and possible contamination of blood supplies, amplified by the AIDS epidemic.

i like the way the tubes rap around the hand it explain what the artist is show the sorrow that people with aids and other terminal illness go though every day
