About this artwork
"moohneymaker II" depicts a semicircle portrait of a dairy cow—proud, uplifted, and in the spotlight. The golden circle behind the head is reminiscent of religious imagery: a halo—or a target marker?
The bright green contrasts with the abstracted depiction of the animal: both unnatural and artificial. The cow becomes an icon of industrial projection—a symbol of food, business, and sentimentality.
This work doesn't ask questions about morality,… but rather demonstrates how deeply economic symbolism has seeped into our visual language. The cow gazes beyond the viewer—perhaps proudly, perhaps detachedly.
“moohneymaker II” is not a caricature, but a clever play with power, gaze and significance.
