Xenophobic Buddha

Below are images of Xenophobic Buddha – a large graphite drawing divided into five separate parts, each measuring 18″ x 24″. For you science geeks out there (or for those of you wishing to understand the relationship of these two pieces to supersymmetry), Xenophobic Buddha is Supersymmetry exists. . . just not here’s superpartner. Superpartners should have the same mass and have a difference of a 1/2 spin (according to my basic understanding of them). So, both of these pieces have equal mass, just distributed differently (if you subtract the negative space) and are rotated 90 degrees from one another yet still facing each other. The fourth image below shows their juxtaposition in the gallery space.
