History & Identity

An American flag juxtaposed with images of motorcycles and smaller American flags. A central figure, whose face bears a resemblance to popular depictions of Osama bin Laden, is overlaid on this backdrop, wearing a headband with the American flag and peering out at the viewer. The figure's body is represented in a reclined, nude pose, reminiscent of classical works portraying the female form, yet here it is with a male subject.
