This is part of a series of paintings done during the lock down. It is inspired by the war like athmosphere imposed during the lockdown, which felt like a curfew. The media and political rethoric was also a war disourse. Yet in many places around the world, real wars are being fought and their voctimes not mentionned daily. The warrior in the painting relates to both an allegory of people who have cared for other in our countries and those who are fighting against tyrans and oppression in other parts of the worl. They are not forgotten.
