Artist Statement
Power, wealth, influence: with these three shiny things abused, you can buy all the cars and diamonds and exit passes from jail. When it becomes easy to be above the law, to bend the rules, and to play God in a broken system that is rigged to be in one’s favor; justice becomes seemingly ‘exclusive’ despite upholding the very guise of fairness itself. This might not be the case in a more ideal society, but our reality behind rose-tinted windows is that Lady Justice has not always been blindfolded from prejudice and corruption. In countries like mine, you would turn deaf from the amount of times you hear the creaks of the scales being tipped out of balance. I hope to simply portray and acknowledge such rotten injustices.
