Social Injustice

Posted by Felice Eliscu at Feb 12, 2008 05:08 PM
I drew this while I was a Patient at (WMHI) Winnebago Mental Health Institute. A State Hospital in Oshkosh Wisconsin. On August 16th 2000, my two Daughters then 8 &12 were removed from my home and placed in Foster care. My oldest at this point had run away 5 times. When I drew this she was on the run. To this day the state of Wisconsin still has custody of my Youngest Daughter now 15 and 1/2. I still have legal guardianship. I do not have any visitation.

The artwork of yours; titled Social Injustice could also read ‘ Justice in Social ( in Society ). You have an interest in Metaphysical Art. Have you looked closely at Buddhist art – thangkas – mandalas. I have seen monks doing sand paintings of mandalas. They are a meditative experience.

The artwork of yours; titled Social Injustice could also read ‘ Justice in Social ( in Society ). You did this in 2000. How has your artwork changed since then??!! … You have an interest in Metaphysical Art. Have you looked closely at Buddhist art – thangkas – mandalas. I have seen monks doing sand paintings of mandalas. They are a meditative experience. I spoke to one of the younger monks and he said that doing the paintings brought him to his inward center of peace; almost instantly, when he began.
