Writings for the paintings:
Censorship & Blackmail
Oilpaint, charcoal and goldleaf on linen
36x56" (92x143cm)
We are born with knowledge. Censorship & blackmail is a loose series of paintings, almost like teststrips, of the idea that being forced to learn popular imposed knowledge also means a loss of other knowledge. Those clichées will occupy and repress those other means of knowledge.
A picture of the schoolyard is one example. The theme will be continued.
