New RATA print release., by rosstierney on Apr 1, 2010 3:35:59 GMT 1, www.curbsandstoops.com/blog/?page_id=103
"This piece is based on the Buddhist monk who burnt himself alive in protest against the persecution of Buddhists by South Vietnamโs Diem administration. This event is widely considered the turning point for the Vietnamese Buddhist crisis.
There are three levels of symbols and imagery that come from the Buddhist religion. The overall structure resembles the three levels of the Lotus Flower, one of the eight auspices of Buddhism. The lotus roots depicts the material world (shown here as skulls). The stem resembles experience (shown here as buttlerfies flying in between flowers). The flower represents enlightenment, depicted by an abstract pattern. "
