The main person in my work is colorful, which represents the freedom of being yourself. In the background I created it, to demonstrate the idea of society’s eye on someone who is “different” from the norm. Completely black and white in their eyes creating a sense of judgement staring at the person in the middle. Society attempts to make everyone the same with its pre constructed ideas on what should be accepted. My art is an attempt to demolish those ideas and demonstrate if you remain yourself, un-affected by society, you can be free.
