Archival pigment print on cotton paper, hand beveled edges // For the Good Times by Wes Lang, an archival pigment print on cotton paper from 2020, presents a haunting and evocative image of a skull adorned with a traditional Native American headdress. The piece combines vivid, painterly strokes in reds, yellows, and blues, giving the feathers a dynamic, almost fire-like quality. The skull’s hollow eyes and bared teeth contrast sharply with the colorful, ceremonial adornment, creating a juxtaposition between life and death, tradition and decay. Lang’s work often explores themes of Americana and mortality, and here he presents a powerful meditation on legacy, identity, and cultural memory.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
