FLUXUS BOX
Fluxus Box Title: Fasle Sense of Decadence Materials: Wood repurposed from pallet, spray paint, acrylic paint, glue, card stock paper Dimensions: 1 ft x 3.5 ft x 6 in The film that inspired this project was The Outlaw Josey Wales- the tale of a man whose life and family was destroyed by "red legs", vigilantes working with the Union to fight the Confederacy. Josey Wales was a farmer and neutral in the war, yet his family slaughtered and home burned. He fought the Union then for some time before the Confederate soldiers with him all surrendered. Refusing to do the same, he was considered an outlaw by the U.S. Government. The movie portrays the injustices carried out against this man, women, Natives and other people at the hands of the U.S. Government, which is so often thought to have an element of moral superiority in its authority. Branching out heavily from this old western narrative, I explored modern examples of moral deficiency in the government. T
