Project Description

PRAYER RUG / CARPET BOMB

Prayer Rug, Carpet Bomb was made during the first Gulf war.  I was listening to NPR regularly and heard a story about Muslim soldiers praying in their dug-out shelters. I was envisioning nails in exploding cluster bombs and gas masks used as protection in this horrific environment.
Made in 1991,  Woodcuts, Acrylic on paper, 48″ h x 39″ w (Private Collection)
