Dragon Car 1970 22x28in Mixed Media on Paper 

David Michael Hinnebusch created this mixed media piece on paper, titled "Dragon Car 1970." Notice the stark juxtaposition of mechanical and organic motifs. The car, a symbol of modernity and speed, is rendered in bold purples and blues. Above it, jagged strokes evoke the silhouette of a dragon, a creature deeply embedded in our collective memory, representing chaos and untamed power. Consider how these elements collide, like the ancient serpent Ouroboros devouring its own tail, suggesting an endless cycle of creation and destruction. The figure in the foreground, almost ghostly, stands as a mediator between these forces, reflecting a deep-seated struggle to reconcile our technological advancements with primal instincts. Hinnebusch taps into a primal narrative, revealing a shared subconscious fascination.
