Economic Warfare is a provocative and symbolic work that critiques political and economic ideologies. In this piece, Karl Marx whispers into Kim Jong Un’s ear while Adam Smith does the same to Donald Trump, portraying both as parrots perpetuating the ideas of greater minds. At the center stands Uncle Sam, the collection agent, representing the mechanism on which both far-left and far-right strategies ultimately rely.
The work suggests that whether labeled “economic policy,” “culture,” or even “warfare,” the same cycle of power and control persists. With sharp allegory and layered meaning, this piece invites viewers to reflect on authority, ideology, and the human costs hidden beneath economic systems.
