Artist Statement
“The Oil Lotus Woman symbolizes the courage it requires for an individual with a conscience, to both acknowledge and stand up to the obvious and insidious forces of industry and money that put profit before the future of the planet and all of its species. The air and water that we all share collectively should not be compromised for the profits of the few, and we should not spoil those assets ourselves, with irresponsible habits. We all share responsibility. Thanks for caring. – Shepard Oil Lotus Woman. 18 x 24 inches. Screen print on cream Speckletone paper. Signed by Shepard Fairey. Numbered
