Dystopia
Eileen Mou
Dystopias are totalitarian societies that foster a loss of individuality and privacy in the context of government control. I sought to explore subsequent disorientation and discomfort resulting from surveillance and severe authority. Overall, I experimented with darker color themes to create a suffocating atmosphere, unrendered parts of paintings to suggest fading autonomy, and an enduring presence of unidentifiable men wearing suits and sunglasses and animal personas.
