Trump 'The Host'
In May 2025, I painted a mural of Donald Trump titled The Host. The mural was an image if Donald Trump, dressed as Uncle Sam with the Israeli flag in his eyes.
The work was a commentary on how US politics and foreign policy have been co-opted by Israel.
Shortly after its completion, police were called to the mural, a campaign was launched to pressure Inner West Council into removing it (which they did), and I began receiving legal letters.
What followed was a lengthy legal process in which the complainant sought orders from the Tribunal requiring me to:
1. I create a new mural that apologised for the original mural, and that this mural had to be in the same place as the old mural;
2. I had to post photos of the mural apology and post it on my Instagram page;
3. I had to write a letter of apology to the President of the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies, and prescribed what he wanted me to write in that letter;
4. I pay $10,000 + revenue made on the sale of posters of the mural in equal parts to several Jewish fundraisers; and
5. I was to attend the Sydney Jewish Museum and undertake specific case studies.
After more than a year, I’ve finally put that legal process behind me.
This is yet another in a growing list of attempts to silence and censor my artwork critical of Israel.
Long story short, it didn’t work. 👊
I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to Jen Robinson, Danielle, Michael and Lauren at Marque Lawyers, and Oshie Fagir.
You are absolute lifesavers ❤️🙏💪
