RACISTS ARE MORONS

Title: RACISTS ARE MORONS

Medium: Watercolor on paper

Created in 2017, Released July 30th 2023.

Artist: Yeshaya Dank

You may be able to silence some people, but I'm still here; so here I am speaking up against the atrocities committed by releasing my art piece proving that RACISTS ARE MORONS!

Here's how this art piece works;

You start from the left bottom corner and then look at all the faces all the way over until the right corner and that's part one.

When you look at part one you will notice all the brightly coloured faces that seem to not match with all the other single color faces.

Now look at the remaining 4 faces in the bottom right corner and what to you notice?

The brown faces, right?

Now that's how society works; in some places there are a mix of people, so you don't notice that your surrounded by all sorts of people, however in some places you can clearly see that there are more of one type of person that another.

So why do some people refuse to see what is reality?!

i.e. that being racist is stupid, because it just depends on where you live if you will even see that sort of person or not, nothing else dictates it.

P.S This piece got damaged during my flight to Australia; someone opened the box at some point and tore a few of the faces, it had a TSA check sticker on the box when i took it off the baggage carousel in Melbourne, Australia.

So if you purchase this artwork, please be aware that a few of the faces aren't in perfect condition anymore.

Also, it will come in pieces; each piece is one face, and you will need to reassemble it yourself.

Please contact me using the information included in the box, if you would like me to explain to you how to reassemble it.

This artwork took me 2 weeks to create, and that is reflected in the price.

"My art explores everything that is beautiful in this world...People, places, emotions, experiences, and opportunities."

- Yeshaya Dank.

I want beauty to be accessible to everyone, and for there to be the understanding that beauty exists everywhere, all the time, you just need to search for it and you will be dearly rewarded!

I paint the uncharted territory, the places and things that I've never seen painted like this before or from this angle.

I try to put many hidden gems into one painting, just waiting for you to discover.

Showing how everything has beauty, it's just waiting to be discovered.

Same with my artworks; with time you will discover new and beautiful details on each painting, which were previously hidden in plain sight!

The artists who inspire my work include:

Edvard Munch, Vincent Van Gogh, and JR.

What is my creation process?

I start by cutting stencils, to ensure that the base shapes and textures are perfect. I then paint using watercolour; up to 50 layers of different colours, in different areas. Allowing some areas to dry fast and some to try slower, creating different textures and shades of colour.

I use thin canvasses intentionally, as i am trying to create beautiful getaways that when not being used, can just blend back into the background again. They don't stick out at you, yet they are still easily accessed at a moments notice, exactly when you need them.

My total creation time, can be up to 3 months per painting.

I grew up in Sydney, Australia. I'm currently based in Victoria, Australia.

Thank you all so much for your ongoing support and I look forward to meeting all of you at some point in the near future! :)
