Jim Carrey's scathing political cartoons -

At 56, Jim Carrey still carries a strong childhood memory of taking a train to Sudbury, a city in northern Ontario, Canada, to attend the funeral of an uncle who had died in a car crash.

Axar.az reports citing CNN.

"It was the greatest time of my life," he said in a phone interview, "because I drew cartoons on the train the entire trip. And I ran up and down the length of the train showing people my cartoons. I remember that as a really strong memory between me and my mother."

In this way, Carrey's recently opened exhibition of his political cartoons at Maccarone Gallery in Los Angeles "is really a revisitation, a re-gifting of my childhood. It's become a political thing at the moment because I think that's necessary. But it's a thing that's been in my life, my whole life".

The show, titled "IndigNation," features 108 pen-and-ink drawings from Carrey's Twitter feed, where the works where originally shared, from roughly 2016 to the present. The wall labels echo the tweets that accompanied the drawings.
