POLL PATROL
POLL PATROL
Ink and gouache on paper, 37.5 x 24.5 inches
SINKHOLE speaks to the engineered unravelling of electoral trust. It portrays a ballot worker diligently performing duties in a sinkhole of suspicion and harassment, surrounded by long lines in districts purposely assigned fewer polling stations, shorter voting calendars, and increasing restrictions. Above her are ghostly gerrymandering politicians who skew the democratic process, promoting disenfranchisement and undermining the spirit of authentic democracy.
