The world has changed. Millions of people live in structures that promote a different sense of family. Everyone over the age of 18 has an industry. Each job is part of an elaborate system that primarily functions to maintain the industrial complex that is organized to expand and multiple across the universe. With this in mind, no one strives through competition, exploitation, and oppression. Wars against nature are over. No more do we educate masses of people to feel inferior or superior. All knowledge has been shared equally to all for decades. Nature still is unpredictable. But we are not trying to control or experiment with it. We now prepare for its inevitable victory over us. We have evolved to a species that innerstands our humanity in the face of our technology. These tasks were achieved partly by a mass revolution of the student class over the World Wide Web. After years of imbalance, violence, and misinnerstanding we as universal people have surrendered and realized that change is more important than reaction. This is The Industrial Maintaining Organization. Never again will the term “man” center us and dictate be our definition. Imoians are people with no nationalism or patriotism centering on preserving our mother universe.
Industrial Maintaining Organization displays a fascinating fixation on visually loud, abstract shapes and patterns, including juxtaposed bright and dark colors, like black and yellow. Despite these graphic abstractions, there is still a sense of cohesion in the pieces. IMO depicts a city in a three-dimensional space for which one could theoretically create an architectural mockup.
These paintings depict an abstract city with a transportation system built with bold, contrasting, and complimenting colors. Skyscrapers tower upward with bulging, colorful shapes. A dark sky shrouds the paintings in the background.
