Tom has informed the group that he has managed to get all of us exhibited in Artstep and how good does it look so far.
A collage: printouts of Twitterfeeds, Printscreens of YouTube, personal drawings, abstract digital and traditional painting. Clickbait.
Scrolling through negative feeds, watching the same old anxiety inducing news whilst channel hopping.
Headlines of Covid hysteria; ninth clap for the NHS and a 1% payrise. Vaccine Passport apartheid.
Gender ideology versus biological reality, images of violence against women as relevant as it ever was with women tweeting #MeToo against their oppressor.
The horrible concerns for health you find in women’s magazines and the objectification therein. Bad breath, cellulite and top tips for losing weight.
Hypocritical Papparazzi steering your princess into certain death.
Be kind to those who have the same viewpoint.
The BLM movement taking off with debate and dialogue being created and a dismantling of systemic racism. Kneejerk reactions, looking in the mirror, white denial, guilt and privilege.
Protecting statues as fragile as whiteness.
Forget martyrs remember victims.
One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.
A schism of the mind and the body, vomiting, insomnia, overthinking.
A schism of society, Isms, Racism, Sexism.
Oppressed vs the oppressor.
An explosion of the mind onto the canvas, unfiltered; a catharsis of the mind like the remnants of a fever dream made conscious.
