“Peace Related Violence”
Acrylic and spray enamel on canvas
My work responds to the Concept of Existence and particularly
comments on the social contradiction of fighting for peace. My work is inspired
by social commentary relating to the riots that occurred around the world last
year. I wanted to show the blatant opposing messages that ‘Peace Related
Violence’ presents. The symbolism of this piece is the contradicting idea of
‘Peace’ and ‘Violence’, I wanted to draw attention to this hypercritical view.
