About Su

I am Suicide Artist. I "detonate" art, not bombs. I paint the bloody flux of daily events to respond to anger, fear, nihilism, desperation, and absurdity. Suicide Art confronts murder and mayhem through ARTnotBOMBS. I make art by destroying art in an endless cycle of creation and destruction.

On Friday the Washington Post reported that "a U.S. military helicopter swooped into Baghdad and began spraying bullets into a crowd of civilians believed to be looting an Army armored vehicle." The last words of Mazin Tumaisi, a journalist for al-Arabiya, were recorded on a video that was shown on his network and on al-Jazeera. Alhurra TV, the US-funded network, chose not to air the video.
