45th NSA #1 (Michael Flynn)
The 45th President’s National Security Advisor - Michael Flynn - only held the job 24 days before being forced to resign due to contact with the Russian Ambassador prior to his offical appointment and then forcing the Vice President to lie. Controversy continues to surround General Flynn including his work on behalf of Turkey. Was the security of the country put at risk by the appointment of this man? Lt. Gen Micheal Flynn was 45’s National Security Advisor (NSA) for 24 days -- the shortest serving NSA in US history. He resigned when it became known that he mislead key administration officials about his contact prior to becoming the NSA with Russian diplomats. This portrait of Flynn -- made of torn bits of trash -- explores the concept of traditionally accepted practices both in the making of art in the behavior of high-level government employees. Using torn or cut bits of trash, speaks to the flagrant laying waste of communication protocols with foreign officials.
