FREEDOM IS A LIE (2023) Painting

FREEDOM IS A LIE (2023) is a political abstract expressionist work exploring how the major governments do nothing for people and spread the lies that they have freedom. While mostly having multiple parties on either wing demonising each other to distract the people from the real problems that are hidden through the institutional control of thought; made easier through social media and disinformation. When discussing politics online and even in person it seems that both parties spend more time insulting each other rather than providing intellectual discourse and critical thought. It is as though the aggression is made to hate each other- to distract us from the control that the top elite have on our lives. The flashy colours were created by dragging my hands down the canvas over and over again in repeating methods to show exhaustion and anger. The black painted hands were slapped onto the canvas to show how the common person has lost their freedom and that the only freedom they have is to be aggressive to others or compliant to the controllers. The only way to change this system is through rebellion or gradual systematic overhauling of governance to reduce control.
