The Absentfather

The Absentfasther, 2023, 22in. x 30in., Ink on cotton paper

This is a physical artwork made with ink on paper. The artwork is inspired by the posters of The Godfather movies. I used the same typeface on this physical painting, and added a Banksy-esque figure, hanging by threads held by unknown powers. I wanted to convey how fatherhood has become constrained by the societal norms. Fathers are expected to work long and hard to provide for their families and in doing so, end up spending limited time with their children.
