"Splintered Tongue" is a social commentary on organic material appropriated to fit within a modernized narrative. The industrial material used in this artwork is of an old piece of wood retrieved from a South side Chicago scrap yard.

Its flesh depicts time or a weathered life while at the same time being a document of the philosophy it was shaped to live by.
