The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, 2017,
marker pen on canvas, 300cmx200cm.

 

 

         
   
     
  In this work I have used the text of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which was proclaimed by the Untied Nations General Assembly in Paris in 1948. I have marked in black marker pen the spaces between the words of the declaration, to shift the emphasis to all that is not written, or is not there, on all that is not put to practice.
The black marks on canvas create a differnt kind of writing, undeciphered and illegible –a new text or an illustration of the absence.
