the dream of a restless citizen

The work "The Dream of a Restless Citizen" belongs to a series of canvases reflecting on society. This is a smooth transition from another series of "nuclear landscapes" only because of the concept of the existence of new generations in it. This is a certain look at a literally blue society and not literally at a sleepy society. Its duality and ambiguity. When you can be an ideologue, criticize the system, values and someone's ideals, shout about your position and always be concerned and critical of everything around you. And then you give in or break when you accept and just close your eyes. When you are awake. You have accepted the past and the future and you no longer notice anything, but simply exist. It is an introspective and critical look at social and ideological issues. This duality and ambiguity in society's perception reflect the complexity of individual interaction with the surrounding world or even its complete absorption.
