Faces of Revolution

120 x 70

Acrylic, author's blood and mirror glass on canvas

2020-2022

“Guy Fawkes mask from V for Vendetta, Fsociety mask from Mr. Robot, Salvador Dalí’s mask from La Casa De Papel... These are some of the most eloquent faces of Resistance. Defiance. Rebellion. Revolution. Faces that call for a change of the customary rules, a change of the system, a change of the society and ourselves. However, the streams of blood (made of my own blood) dripping down their faces reveal insufficient willingness of today’s people to call for change. But in the reflection of the pieces of mirror you can see yourself. Because everyone can show resistance to the established order, everyone can try to improve what does not work justly and correctly, everyone can change the world... This picture – your picture – then becomes complete.”

The work is part of the “Let's Start A Revolution” series.
