Mixed media, Xanax created by the artist using resin and pigments

20”W x 19”H x 13”L

In this work I invite you to contemplate society's relationship with medication, through a lens of whimsy and satire. This thought-provoking piece features Xanax pills playfully arranged in a mosaic and patterns.

With a touch of irreverent humor, the artwork challenges our perceptions of prescription medication. The composition is a riotous dance of shapes and white colors, defying the sterile and clinical associations often linked to pharmaceuticals. The playful arrangement of pills exudes an almost childlike wonder, urging us to reevaluate our attitudes towards mental health and treatment as well as questioning the role of medication in our pursuit of happiness and mental well-being.

The “Emotional Support Dog ” is a visual commentary on a society that seeks solace in medication, often in search of a quick fix for life's complexities. It is a testament to the artist's ability to infuse serious topics with humor and wit, provoking a dialogue about the delicate balance between healing and hedonism.
