Description
Size: 135 x 90 cm
Medium: Mixed media (acrylic, oil, and spray paint on canvas)
In this piece, past and present collide with symbolic force. The artist reinterprets iconic moments from American military history — from the Revolution to World War II — blending classical painting techniques with a contemporary urban aesthetic. The figures, meticulously rendered in oil, emerge through vibrant colors, dripping spray paint, and bold acrylic textures that evoke motion, chaos, and urgency.
Rather than glorifying conflict, the composition invites reflection: epic heroism is interrupted by rebellious visual gestures, graffiti-like marks, and expressive color work that challenge traditional narratives of war. The result is a powerful, visually striking piece charged with tension, critique, and contradiction.
