Resist - Ross Atkinson
Description
Newspaper Collage - Framed 470mm x 620
ARTIST STATEMENT: This piece is an illustration of the efforts to protest in our society, an act that is often presented in a bad light by most media outlets. I introduced a sort of irony by creating an image of a protester by only using items of the media, in this case a collage of newspapers. This way of creating this piece somewhat reinforces the message. Where despite the media disapproving and attempting to invalidate protests towards a cause, the people will still persist and resist.
Ross created this piece aged 18 while a student at The Sixth Form Centre.
