PoPlitically Incorrect
An embedded infatuation with pop culture and politics drove Saint Hoax to share his PoPlitically Incorrect vision. Hoax combines tangible and digital mediums, such as a technique called lenticular printing, to create beautiful visual lies that tell an ugly truth. Lenticular printing allows the artwork to change as the image is viewed from different angles.

CONSUME
In the 1988 film They Live, ‘Rowdy’ Roddy Piper stands in the streets of Los Angeles and looks through a pair of propaganda busting sunglasses that reveal the hidden alien messages behind the city’s billboards. The ads encourage everyone to STAY ASLEEP, BUY, WATCH TV, MARRY AND REPRODUCE, and the command which New York artist Hal Hefner has adopted as the title of his viral series: CONSUME.
“Nobody so clearly defines the word CONSUME like Donald Trump.” He says.

Bloody Trump
In protest of Donald Trump’s sexist remarks suggesting Fox News presenter Megyn Kelly was tough on him because she was on her period, artist Sarah Levy created this portrait of Trump out of her own menstrual blood. She plans to donate the sales from the work to “an organization that helps Mexican immigrants in the U.S., because ol’ Don would hate that.”
