Most of the figures in my work are archetypes and here I have rendered three archetypes within or as, a singular archetype, that of the body builder. Though one might argue that Trump is not quite an archetype, I am striving to see him as such, so as to understand better the underlying forces that have put him in power. Here, despite his ripping physique, he appears to need help surmounting a rainbow-like strata/cut-away. Happy to oblige are an intensely buff Jesus and jacked thongstress, all three bonded as brothers in arms through their blonde coiffures. Behind them the tornadoes rage.
