A comment on this painting by Lian Ladia: “Iggy Rodriguez’s painting, “Radix”, poses the question to society “Who is almighty?”, and provides symptoms to a widespread problem through symbolic images of developmental oppression and our current financial crisis. At the base of the painting is a healthy oblivious piggy bank controlled by a force that seems to know where the money in the bucket will be transmitted. The complex play of governmental practice in our skewered economy is represented portraying the fact that there is money in the bucket, as a natural recourse of economy, but somehow almost “superhuman” forces seem to control the nature of things, coercively to its descent.”
