The description provided by the artist: "The horse, as a symbol of strength and freedom, is typically associated with grace and might. However, the presence of a gun in the horse's forehead changes these notions into symbols of power and threat. It inevitably raises questions about the very concept of strength, as its interpretation can vary depending on how the viewer perceives the interplay between control, power, and individual freedom."
The technique used: Canvas, stencil, MTN aerosol paint, liquid Black/White marker.
