Emerging from Cleon Peterson’s ongoing exploration of power, violence, and the darker impulses of human nature, this edition reflects on the cycles of domination and revenge that continue to shape contemporary society. Rather than locating violence in a particular conflict or moment, the work points to a recurring pattern in which the pursuit of power produces suffering, retaliation, and further destruction.
Characteristic of Peterson’s practice, stylised figures and stark graphic contrasts reduce conflict to an almost archetypal struggle between power and submission. Behind this apparent opposition lies a more unsettling proposition: darkness cannot simply be attributed to an external enemy, but exists as a possibility within us all. Suspended between confrontation and uncertainty, the work asks what might be required to interrupt these cycles, while resisting the comfort of offering an easy way out.
The strength and power of Cleon Peterson’s art is undeniable. His chaotic and violent paintings show clashing figures in a struggle between power and submission in the fluctuating architecture of contemporary society. Cleon’s art is a powerful vision of the darkest impulses of contemporary society. From paintings on canvas to architecturally-scaled murals to bronze sculptures, prints and other editions. Throughout his work he explores structures of power, submission and violence, often depicting archetypal figures locked in battle or engaged in acts of brutality.
