This painting is looking to the recent wars in the Middle East. The dead bodies have flower reefs placed around their necks to show respect for the dead.The cranes branded with western Television companies (American and British) has multiple connotations; one being how the media has shown the world what is happening to these poor civilians, killed by there fellow country men.
The other, more sinister, is that is it the West has invaded this area to claim the Oil in the land for itself? The TV corporations representing there nations, and also the possibility where the media has helped in manipulating the public to find this war virtuous?
