The central figure in this painting is a recently retired individual, depicted checking his phone for updated financial news. The inspiration for this piece stems from the real-life story of Bill Hwang, a billionaire and private capital Wall Street investor who experienced a significant loss of $20 billion within just two days.
In this image, I sought to highlight the detrimental effects of greed, the influence of private banks, and the inherent volatility of deregulated large firms and entrepreneurial capitalism. I drew inspiration from Edward Munch’s iconic artwork, “The Scream,” to portray the protagonist with dramatic features that convey a sense of turmoil and unease. The choice of a late-night setting symbolizes the clandestine nature of dark money within our economy.
