LEISURE REBEL carries the idea that rest, relaxation, leisure, and play are not just personal pleasures - they are radical forms of resistance. In a world shaped by the constant demand for productivity and economic growth, choosing to slow down becomes a rebellious act.
The seven following pieces are all part of LEISURE REBEL, where oil sticks and pigments were comibined on raw canvas. The artworks invite us to reclaim our time, our bodies, and our attention. To rest is to resist. To play is to protest. In this spirit, the piecees suggest that softness, joy, and idleness are not signs of weakness, but powerful tools for reclaiming agency in an overworked world. We all need to say no sometimes and protect our peace of mind, our sanity in this world that seems to be going mad.
