“White Male Decoys”

This series reflects Mike’s fixation on the craft of hunting decoys. Being a privileged white male himself, Mike turns the crosshairs on those who tout arm-baring rights by spoofing their alluring distractions and aggrandized regalia. Each is hand-made by Mike himself, some hand-carved from wood, some mixed media, others are resin-based alterations of store-bought hunting decoys. Sketches below show more yet-to-be-realized renditions.
