The word CONSUME is meant to evoke the propaganda used by alien invaders to control the masses in John Carpenter’s 80’s cult classic, They Live. In this piece of art the word is both ironic and laughable with the multiple meanings it projects when used with Microsoft mogul turned philanthropist, Bill Gates. The theme of this piece is directly inspired by the anti-vaxxer/QAnon fear based narrative around Bill Gates injecting microchips into humans with a Covid-19 vaccine. Motivated by his Microsoft technocracy as visual fodder to juxtapose against his alien visage, this piece takes on a more colorful approach to WW2 propaganda art with a little Windows 2000 flair.
