Thein draws from the rich and multilingual vernacular of Burmese protest posters in this monumental hand-painted work. Despite the military junta’s relentless crackdowns on public dissent and street demonstrations, in-person and online protests continue. Previously, Thein explored how civilians use public space in Myanmar — and how the regime interprets almost any public action as potentially political — in a series of performances on the streets of Yangon, including the collaborative piece Mobile Market / Mobile Gallery.Copyright The Artist$ 10,000.00
