It’s easy to look at this piece or a lot of my work and easily take it at face value as some sort of commentary about marketing, branding or capitalism, but it’s just not that simple. The Hamburglar is a thief, but to me, he’s more like Robin Hood than Jesse James. Instead, my main objective throughout the entire execution of this piece was to focus on and use a variety of layers both physical and psychological. All meanings—conscious or subconscious—aside, this piece is a reflection of that idea and experimentation with unconventional materials.
