Godzilla versus Mechagodzilla.
60 x 60 cm.
Hand pulled silk screen on cartridge paper with spray paint.
This piece comes out of the ideas that run through a lot of my artwork. Godzilla is not just a monster to me. Godzilla is the earth fighting back. Godzilla is Gaia. Nature. The planet as a living force reacting to greed, destruction, pollution, war, and the endless appetite of industrial power.
Mechagodzilla is the opposite force. The machine. The industrial military system. The cold world of profit, weapons, control, and corporations feeding on the planet while pretending to protect it. Steel against instinct. Industry against life itself.
I love using pop culture imagery because people recognise it instantly, but inside the image there is another conversation taking place. It becomes more than a film reference. It becomes a symbol of the world we are living in right now.
The spray paint gives the work movement, atmosphere, and energy. I wanted it to feel explosive, alive, like a warning siren painted across a city wall at midnight. The silk screen process keeps the image bold and graphic, almost like an underground poster or a lost cinema advert from another future.
Art should say something. Art should start conversations. This piece is about power, ecology, resistance, and the strange direction the modern world seems to be moving in.
