American artist May Stevens worked on a series of art she called ‘Big Daddy’. It’s a group of paintings made after trying and failing to educate her working class father on his conservative political views. Pro-War, racist, bigot by her own words. Stevens saw her father as symbol of the American patriarchy and produced the ‘Big daddy’ images to depict a disgusting white man with a phallic-shaped head amid American flags and military style uniform.
