Water Wars by tijo (2026), 140 × 120 cm acrylic and oil stick on canvas. A neo-expressionist portrait of a green-skinned figure with mismatched eyes (a yellow frame and a red frame), a yellow dollar-sign chain wrapping the head like a noose, and a red WATER WAR name-tag taped across the mouth. The figure wears a purple military uniform with SPECIES stencilled on the shoulder; NATO yellow-and-black prison bars at the chest. Background dense with text including IN GOD WE TRUST, A.I., LIGHT, HUMAN, currency symbols, year dates, and mathematical operators.

Water Wars

Water as the next currency. The dollar as a noose. A green-skinned head with WATER WAR taped across the mouth like a court summons.
