Peterson's work often explores the darker aspects of human nature, such as violence, power struggles, and societal chaos. His art is heavily influenced by his experiences with drug addiction and recovery, which give his work a unique perspective on the human condition. In "Little Big Man Black On Red," Peterson employs his signature high-contrast color palette, featuring black figures puppeteering President Donald Trump set against a bright red/orange background.

This piece is part of a larger body of work by Peterson, which often addresses themes of power dynamics and the cyclical nature of violence. As a silkscreen print, "Little Big Man Black On Red" is produced using a stencil-based printing process. In this method, an artist creates a stencil, or screen, for each color layer in the artwork. Ink is then pushed through the screen onto a surface, such as paper or canvas. This process allows for the creation of multiple identical prints, which are typically produced in limited editions and signed by the artist. The silkscreen technique is often used by artists for its ability to produce bold, vibrant colors and clean, sharp lines, which are evident in Peterson's striking compositions.

Hand-pulled on deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper, this artwork encapsulates the intensity and confrontation often associated with urban art narratives.

Peterson's stark contrast between red and black imbues the piece with an arresting and disturbing visceral energy. This artwork is a bold statement on the dynamics of power and submission within societal structures. The central figure's inverted pose and the surrounding motifs of struggle and dominance conjure a sense of upheaval. The print's aggressive lines and flattened perspective are reminiscent of Greek vases and Eastern iconography, yet the work is unequivocally modern in its thematic exploration of contemporary power struggles. Peterson's work often reflects on chaos and order, violence, and the cyclical nature of power, which he portrays through scenes of conflict that are as aesthetically stark as they are thematically challenging. "Absolute Power" is not merely an illustration; it is a conversation piece that demands contemplation on the forces that govern human interactions and the often brutal nature of authority. It is a testament to the power of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork to reflect and critique the underlying tensions of our time. Through its bold depiction and limited availability, Peterson's print becomes a coveted item for collectors and a significant piece for observers, ensuring its message and impact resonate well beyond the confines of traditional gallery spaces.
