'V' series article with AFP magazine, Hong Kong

'V' 

'V' here stands for Vendetta and Vigilante. My series of B&W drawings and paintings are inspired by the English movie of the same name, V for Vendetta is a 2006 dystopian thriller film directed by James McTeigue. The common mans fight against the different social diseases or malice is predominant here. It's satirical depiction of social upheavals and voice for change around the world. It's the contemporary fight for change for political situations as well as economic security. Funny yet raw in essence the drawings will definitely make your heart aware of the predicament of the masses. The common man acts as the vigilante here, voicing and fighting against oppression of all kinds and various social, political and economic malices.
It’s a satirical depiction of social upheavals and voice for change around the world. It’s the contemporary fight for change for political, social and economic security. Funny it might look yet raw in essence. The drawings will definitely make your heart aware of the predicament of the masses around the world. The commonman acts as the lone vigilante here. Voicing and fighting against oppression of all kinds. We suffer from an insecurity of living our life humanly. Dreams are crushed even before they are given shape. Ideas lay scatted unattended on the path of corruption and manipulation.

One can live in this world but surrounded by fear and scared of truth, looking only at a hopeless dream of sanity. The cause to fight for justice and equality in the society is an immortal journey. Pursued for ages by mankind. In this series of work, swords are always drawn, a great battle of individuals is raging all over the space. It’s a battle for change. A call to fight corruption, lies and evils in all shapes and colours. The slogan raised here is “Let the overthrow of old world of malices be traced on the palms of your hands”.
We are looking for heroes among us but powers who thrive on corruption and insecurity are crushing them all the times. Revolution of ideas and free speech is in danger in this era of faceless ideals. What are we standing for; has honesty, truth are just alien to man now. Times are charged with change in the air. But it is not easy for us to know what we want; indeed, we may well want something, yet still remain in a state of negativity, a state of dissatisfaction, for we may as yet remain unconscious of new positivity. Striving for a pure state of stability is a myth, yet it’s our humanly duty to fight for at least a bit of it in this world. The fight is immortal and that makes this series V immortal as well.
