Liberty Leading the People of Hong Kong. Group exhibition "The Art of Resistance", Kong Art Space, Hong Kong, 2019

Digital collage, printed on canvas. 90 x 90 cm

Liberty Leading the People of Hong Kong is a digital collage inspired by the protests against the extradition bill and the wind of freedom emanating from them. The collage elements are from the famous painting by Delacroix, featuring the French July Revolution of 1830, and a poster of Chinese propaganda, produced at the occasion of the handover of Hong Kong of 1997. These two combined elements create a new narrative, focusing on the people of Hong Kong fighting for its freedom.
