https://youtu.be/_pAtcdXcxEw?si=Xyp5gg7lFJpAhmst The heroine sits on an inanimate rocker implanted in the soil. The chair provides the security of tradition. The phallic desires of men cut at her clothing, tempting her to abandon the dress that camouflages her femininity. Her liberated friends discard their conservative garb, striding towards modernity and worldliness. The praying man symbolizes the much-debated role of headship. The Bible suggests that the veil gives the woman the protection of angels. My Mennonite ancestors embraced this esoteric symbol with great conviction although at one time it was fashionable for all women.

Don Michael Swartzentruber (born 1966, Sussex county, Delaware) signs with his surname, pronounced phonetically as swärtzen-trüber. He is one of the first contemporary artists to critically investigate the old order Mennonite community he grew up in. His current work further challenges broader religious dogmas. He creates enigmatic paintings that explore culture, politics, theology and sociology. His style has been described as carnivalesque, whimsical, and Neo-Pop Surrealism. Swartzentruber’s studio is in the historical Billy Sunday community of Winona Lake, Indiana.
