| ART4FREEDOM title: |
Caging a cage
|
| ART4FREEDOM meaning: |
The idea of my ART4FREEDOM came from an old poem, "The nightingale does not breed in a cage", but I replaced the nightingale with flying birds because it is more general. The cage symbolizes the lack of freedom. So, for the birds to enjoy freedom, the cage is placed inside a cage of the same type. The work is open for interpretation and raises many questions such as: Are the birds considering the depth of entrapment? The cage of our everyday lives inside the cage of the wider world. Are they trying to work out how to live their everyday lives without being caught in events and circumstances beyond their control?
A man is born free for five minutes as it is said, so how does he/ she know freedom again? I hope that this work, in addition to ART4FREEDOM, will contribute to the awareness of the lost freedom. IAM4FREEDOM! |
