CROSSROADS ╳ Canvas Series

This series is dedicated to the crossroads of our future. Inspired by George Orwell's book "1984" and recent events with COVID-19 I rethought the definition of our society and here're my thoughts:Right now we live in a time where we seem to be free and under the control of 'Big Brother' at the same time. Our next steps will dictate which future we get to live in. Future with freedom and truth or future where thoughtcrime is death?

“Imagine that you are standing on the crossroads and in front of you are these two works. Each canvas represents a separate door into a different future. "Road 1.0." (on the left) is all about that free future with difference and creativity while "Road 2.0." (on the right) takes you to the age of Big Brother and doublethink. Make a decision — pick your own road/future.”
