Prisoner of Substance

“Prisoner of Substance” is a vibrant and provocative pop art style painting that depicts a young woman trapped behind a self-made prison of substance abuse. She is shown weeping behind the bars of her addictions. The painting is done in bright colors with bold lines, capturing the intense emotions that come with substance abuse. The title of the painting speaks to the notion that substance abuse can create a self-imposed prison, where the individual becomes a prisoner of their own addictions. Pamela Fay Today’s “Pop Art On The Edge” speaks to the edgy, unconventional nature of her paintings which quite literally cover the edges of the canvases she paints on. This piece brings attention to the fact that substance abuse is a complex issue that is often glossed over in society.
