“I have taken George Orwell’s 1984 as a point of discourse, particularly the hyper control of knowledge and information flow by a state or controlling body and their use of the propaganda posters as a means to facilitate their message in an accessible visual way, contemporized and objectified in a gallery.  ‘The red and black invokes totalitarianism and state authority across a political spectrum’ (Prof Kirstie Ball 2022, personal communication).  It is for the viewer to consider the meaning both obvious and subliminal.”
