In 'They Gave Me Two Feet, and I Gave Em’ a Foot,’ Trenton Doyle Hancock looks back to an iconic painting titled 'Give 'em an Inch and They'll Take a Foot' from his 2006 exhibition In The Blestian Room. The painting was also featured in David Velasco’s review of the show for Artforum.
Recently, Hancock has been looking back at pivotal moments in his "Moundverse" mythology to lay the groundwork for some of his key players to reappear. This painting is an example of one of these iconic call backs.
