In Saved by God, Daru presents a provocative fusion of pop culture and political commentary.
The painting depicts Donald Duck bearing a striking resemblance to U.S. President Donald Trump, capturing the moment he was shot in the ear during a public event.
This imagery references the real-life incident on July 13, 2024, when Trump was grazed by a bullet at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The artwork portrays Donald Duck with distinctive Trump-like features, including his signature hairstyle and attire.
The character is shown reacting to the injury, with a visible wound on his ear and a defiant expression, reminiscent of Trump's fist pump after the incident.
The background is infused with chaotic energy, featuring abstract elements that evoke the tumultuous atmosphere of the event.
Daru's use of reclaimed wood as a canvas adds texture and depth, symbolizing resilience and the repurposing of narratives.
The painting challenges viewers to reflect on the intersection of media, politics, and public perception, encapsulating a moment where reality and satire converge.
Signed by the artist in the bottom right corner, this one-of-a-kind piece is a bold statement on contemporary events, blending iconic imagery with sharp social critique.
