Dinner in Hell pulls no punches—it places us directly at the table. In this dark and unflinching composition, world leaders Trump and Putin carve up the earth with calm precision, their expressions void of remorse. The globe, bloodied and broken, becomes a sacrificial offering to power. This isn’t a metaphor for hell—it is hell, served cold and without apology.

Hovering above the grotesque feast is a deeply reimagined Mickey Mouse. No longer a symbol of joy or innocence, he takes the form of a sorrowful Christ—crowned with thorns, hand over his face, witnessing devastation with silent grief. His iconic image, once meant to bring comfort, now signals despair. He cannot intervene. He only mourns.

Below the table, two childlike Mickey-angel figures gaze upward, fragile and confused. They are not just witnesses; they are inheritors—left to make sense of a world ravaged by greed and domination.

Dinner in Hell is a brutal, urgent reflection on the state of humanity, leadership, and lost innocence. It confronts viewers with the emotional weight of watching destruction unfold—helpless, heartbroken, and complicit.

There are no metaphors here — this painting doesn’t symbolize. It is accused.

Trump and Putin aren’t just faces; they’re systems, twisted into human form. The knives in their hands aren’t tools — they are verdicts. The globe isn’t a prop — it’s a carcass.

As they carve the world calmly, coldly, eyes burning with power, blood drips from the plate — a grotesque after-dinner course served on the ruins of our future.

Hovering above this grim feast is a new Christ: Mickey Mouse. Once the icon of global childhood and packaged innocence, now a pop culture crucifix with no smile. Instead, a crown of thorns and a hand shielding his face. What could he say? What could he do? He only watches as the world he was meant to entertain becomes a playground for the powerful.

Behind them, the shadows don’t dance — they watch. Perhaps no longer people at all, but the weight of consequence.

At the table’s edge, two child-angels shaped like Mickey but with fragile human bodies look up, hesitant, pleading. No answer comes. Because what they see isn’t their future — it’s their fate.
