Wholly Heathen

Myth and resistance

Wholly Heathen is a daily painting practice shaped by unrest.
Through symbolic imagery and layered textures, it reflects on power, estrangement, and the sacred in the everyday.
This is a space for mythic fragments — political, personal, and unfinished by design.

These works are signed under the name Wholly Heathen — a pseudonym chosen to protect anonymity and amplify symbolic critique.
The ever-watching eye, used as a signature, reflects the tension between surveillance and spiritual estrangement.
This archive is not just personal — it’s mythic, political, and deliberately unclaimed.

My work 

Supreme Cult. 2025 acrylic on canvas

"Supreme Cult" embodies a mythic indictment of the far-right capture of the U.S. Supreme Court. It critiques the erosion of constitutional norms through strategic manipulation—beginning with Mitch McConnell’s blockade of Merrick Garland’s nomination, the entrenchment of corporate influence via Citizens United, and culminating in the reversal of long-standing precedents like Roe v. Wade. The skeletal justices symbolize a decayed institution, hollowed by MAGA extremism and billionaire-backed agendas. The painting exposes the Court not as a neutral arbiter, but as a cultic apparatus enforcing authoritarian will under the guise of legality.

Exodus Frog. 2025 acrylic on canvas 

“Exodus Frog” captures a surreal moment of resistance, where inflatable costumed citizens subvert a narrative of fear. Intended as a spectacle of ICE-led intimidation across West Coast cities, the militarized incursion was met not with panic, but with vibrant, peaceful protest. Through playful costumes and public dancing, these citizens redefined the scene—transforming a show of force into a defiant celebration of joy, absurdity, and communal resilience.
