Rage Births Riot was begun in the fall of 2021, immediately after the Supreme Court allowed the Texas abortion ban to take effect. It reflects the artist’s continuing rage at this unprincipled attack on the basic human rights of American women and their families. This work is the closest to figurative that Ellyn has gone. It is made with dye, inks, spray enamel, and a bit of acrylic on raw canvas. The rawness of the work matches the rawness of the anger.
