'Unus Employed Ment'
(4k version is on the link at the bottom)
The little means "one employed mind" crossing ancient Egyptian language with Latin.
I wont go into all the references and hidden messages because I like to leave clues... but here's a glimpse into what I like to do:
The eye is actually a visual morse code.
The sign itself is just a mock on branding and visual reference to "what you see is not actually what it is". I felt like a vintage gas station sign be conceptually perfect for deception, marketing and big business.
The piece overall is a pocket of my subconscious mind. A portal to truth and a digital future... almost like my mind is mixing the past, present and future warning me. I figured with my latest struggles in art and with finances, possibly having to become employed I'm realizing the future will be worse off without cleaners. Maybe this is part of a last attempt to connect as one to defy that which was already built and build a new system.
The piece is in 'The Janitor's Portals collection'
