Ilana Savdie's *Under Questionable Jurisdiction* (2020) is a visceral and frenetic composition rendered in oil, acrylic, and beeswax on canvas over panel, where writhing forms and explosive bursts of color collapse the boundaries between bodies, organisms, and abstraction. The translucent, waxy surface lends the work a membrane-like quality, amplifying its sense of biological tension and corporeal unease. Savdie's layered application of materials creates a dense, pulsating visual field that evokes themes of power, containment, and the grotesque spectacle of political and physical struggle.
