Negotiating Chaos

Bull vaulting or leaping is a sport some consider more dangerous than bullfighting. The recortador uses no weapons to injure or weaken the charging bull. It is the bravery and skill of the person against the charging animal. In this bull art, despite the danger a girl has braced herself. She tries to figure out the direction of the threat, leaps in the air and grabs the bull by the horns. A quick mid-air pivoting summersault, the release, and a desperate attempt to pin the landing.

The most powerful politician in the world at this moment in history, has the focus, forethought, and compassion of a bull in a China shop. This chaos art features a Spanish bull wrapped in a map of the world. It represents the challenge for countries and world leaders, of dealing with an incredibly powerful, yet unpredictable president who treats former allies as adversaries, and former adversaries as friends.
