Execution
This three-poster series examines the interaction between symbols and culture. For most, this symbol represents the Third Reich’s use of the Swastika. Before the Nazi symbol, it was used in Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism.
For those who practice Hinduism, they see it as a symbol of prosperity and good luck. In Jainism, it is the seventh of 24 spiritual teachers, while in Buddhism it’s the footprint of the Buddha. In several Indo-European religions, it represents a lighting bolt and the thunder god. Regardless of your experience with this symbol, whenever it is apart of a conversation the topic is too tense for many.
