Description
This painting invites us to self-observe on a very pertinent issue of today- freedom of thought. Often we find ourselves fiercely protecting our right to freedom of speech- but forget that one important step that paves the way for the right to express your views- forming an informed opinion. This painting reminds us to be aware, to be conscious, and to be responsible for the narrative that we buy. As we are constantly being bombarded by images on our screens, it becomes very easy for us to passively ingest what we see, rather than critique, analyze, and explore multiple perspectives on issues. Thus, information becomes the most potent weapon in today’s world. The painting aims to induce dialogue about the institutionalization of the human mind itself. Our thoughts, rarely really our own, are a product of this machinery. Despite the systematic institutionalization of thought, observe the viewer’s power to tear off the blinders and truly see the truth. Thus, giving a message of hope and reminding everyone of the responsibility they bear to challenge, adapt, or even discard their dearly held beliefs in the pursuit of truth.
