“I Thought You Said Jesus Loves Everyone” — Original Hand-Painted Social Commentary by Vanessa Hoo
“I Thought You Said Jesus Loves Everyone” — Original Hand-Painted Social Commentary by Vanessa Hoo
How can a country rooted in religious rhetoric justify cruelty at its borders, censorship of identity, and violence against love?
“I Thought You Said Jesus Loves Everyone” is a bold, hand-painted protest and prayer — an expressionist burst of color, contradiction, and call-out. At its core is a challenge to weaponized faith: if love is your message, why are your policies built on exclusion?
Painted by Vanessa Hoo, founder of Groovy Paradox, this one-of-a-kind canvas is a raw, heartfelt critique of ICE detentions, LGBTQ+ discrimination, and the commodification of morality under American capitalism. Pride and pain swirl through vibrant, chaotic color — refusing neat answers and demanding better questions.
Handmade. Loud. Unapologetic.
