28. Dave Seiler

"Game"


"Anus Grenade"


"Mayflower"


Dave Seiler creates small scales sculptures that involve concepts focused on war and consumerism. As this relates to my thesis, Seiler is able to use American-type objects and turn them in to pieces of mini propaganda, while maintaining the appeal to aesthetics. "Anus Grenade" reshapes the idea and purpose of grenade into a comical jab at war; likewise "Mayflower" rehashes America's affection for boats-in-jar and the Mayflower while updating the reality of the affect of European migration to the new word becoming rampant with destructive corporations.
