Big Santa Painting - Limited Edition of 100

Santa is a legendary character, originating in Western culture, who is said to bring children gifts on Christmas Eve of toys and candy or coal or nothing, depending on whether they are “naughty or nice”. He supposedly accomplishes this with the aid of Christmas elves, who make the toys in his workshop, often said to be at the North Pole, and flying reindeer who pull his sleigh through the air. But who is Big Santa? The name Big Santa is inspired by Big Brother from George Orwell’s novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, where the people are continuously monitored by live cameras as well as microphones. Most people rightfully abhor such breach of privacy, but how many can resist the call of the corporate Big Santa, who´s providing free internet services? Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and many others offer all free access to their platforms and people are flocking towards them in droves. I´m aware that the social media are for many people a tool to manage some aspects of their life. Just don’t get sucked into a vortex of endlessly checking Facebook, Instagram, online news, Twitter, whatever… Be aware that your online content will be fragmented, chopped, and sold to advertisers by social media companies. Some entrepreneurs will add up all the time sucked from your life, and call it a metric – ‘user engagement’.
