M comme Média M comme Manipulation
A travers de nombreux pays, la liberté de la presse est baffouée, l'information est l'arme du gouvernant., ce dernier peut créer avec cet outil une dépendance totale, voir un lavage de cerveau.
Dans mon tableau, le présentateur est en or, à la fois symbole de pouvoir mais aussi de rigidité car il est figé (Cf le roi MIDAS), ses yeux sont comme des objectifs de Caméra, il observe, mais est aussi observé.. En arrière plan, les filigranes représentent 3 thèmes d'actualité du jour de la réalisation du tableau (loi sur la Burqa, Problème des banlieues et l'expultion des roms).,
M like Media M like Manipulation (french)
Through many countries, the freedom of the press is ridiculed, information is the weapon of controlling., this last can create with this tool a total dependence, to see a washing of brain
In my painting the presenter is out of gold, at the same time symbol of being able but also of rigidity because he is fixed (cf MIDAS), his eyes are like objectives of Camera, he observes, but is also observed. In background, the filigrees represents 3 topics of topicality of the day of the realisation of this painting (law on Burqa, Problem of violence in the suburbs and the expultion of the roms)
