Description: Power Struggle is a 2026 mixed media graffiti painting by Roche Jackson. The artist created this work on a 24 × 36 inch handmade wood and MDF panel. It is the second piece in a three-part series. The painting explores memory, consumer culture, and the impact of visual overload.

Roche Jackson combines vintage advertisements, archival imagery, spray paint, acrylic paint, and grease pen. The collage includes Campbell’s Soup advertisements, Minolta camera branding, and LIFE magazine covers. These familiar images create a connection between past and present.

The artist covers the surface with layers of paint and expressive marks. As a result, the artwork creates a sense of movement and tension. The panel contains almost no empty space, which allows every detail to contribute to the composition.

In addition, the imagery wraps around the edges of the wood panel. This detail suggests that memories and consumer influences follow us through everyday life. Meanwhile, the layered surface creates a contrast between order and chaos.

Power Struggle brings together vintage advertising, street art, and contemporary abstraction. Ultimately, the painting examines how media and personal memories shape our experiences. It transforms familiar cultural images into a powerful visual record of time, influence, and change.
