Much of Daws 's work reflects his interest in socio-political issues , particularly those of racial and cultural identity . Some of his most controversial works play on stereotypes of African American , Native American , and Mexican American culture . '' Seattle Post-Intelligencer '' art critic , Regina Hackett writes : " In Seattle , no white artist has pushed the edge of racial outrage as clearly as Jack Daws , who is hardwired to go over the line ... He 's not expressing hatred or taking a fast ride on any one hot button . All hot buttons are dear to him . " Other works have addressed the September 11 attacks ( '' Two Towers '' , 2003 ) , the Florida election recount in the 2000 U.S. presidential race ( '' Serfs Up ! '' , 2004 ) , police brutality ( '' Better You Than Me '' , 2007 ) , the war on drugs ( '' Misdemeanor Sculpture '' , 2001 , '' Anywhere But Here '' , 2002 , '' Ceci N'est Pas Une Bong '' , 2004 ) , and Israel – United States relations ( '' King of Israel '' , 2007 ) . To date however , the work Daws is perhaps best known for is his piece entitled '' Counterfeit Penny '' , 2006
