Street / Urban Art
This is my latest artwork, What Time Is It? It’s Screen Time!, created using the gel plate method and painted with acrylics and inks. The piece was born out of an effort to recycle discarded materials, painted directly on the back of a Domino’s Pizza box to transform something destined for the landfill into a canvas with a message. In doing so, I wanted to blend playful experimentation with deeper critique, paying homage to my roots in cartooning and to the street artists who continue to inspire me. What emerges is a work that speaks to both creativity and responsibility, while also holding up a mirror to the world we live in today.
At its core, this piece is a social commentary on our growing dependence on screens and the way this dependence quietly erodes our most meaningful connections. It points toward the physical toll of endless phone use, from the aches and strains of tech neck, to the invisible but even more damaging breakdown of family bonds and social circles. For some, this disconnection feels almost engineered, a deliberate structure built to isolate and control, and while I do not claim to know the full truth of such claims, I do know the evidence of its impact is everywhere. This work asks the viewer to pause and question whether the trade of authentic human connection for digital convenience is worth the price we are paying.
What Time Is It? It’s Screen Time! is part a throwback to my cartoon days, a nod to all my street artist friends, and a very poignant social commentary to the true horrors of modern society. It speaks to a growing disconnect between us all and an ever growing dependence on cell phones and screen time at the expense of genuine and personal human interaction. From the physical ramifications of tech neck to the very real breakdown of social circles and family, it is an ever growing ailment and cancer of modern society. For the cynical amongst us, they would say it is a deliberate construct to segregate and control the masses. I will not chime in other than to say there is enough there to merit discourse and conversation.
