Art et contestation
how it was said before banksy is an artist who wants to be anonymous so we need to discover his works of art it is not him who will announce it .So this work was discovered on a garage of a private individual of Port Talbot in a city of Wales .
The work represent a child in winter clothes, a sled at his feet, opening his arms and pulling his tongue to try to catch the snowflakes that seem to fall from the sky.
On the other side of the wall, a burning bin releases thick black smoke and a shower of ashes, revealing the origin of the “snowflakes” falling on the child.
This work could be realized first by the artist but also by one of his fans who sent him a message on instagram explaining the conditions in which the ressident live because of the pollution. the artist took his message into account
I think that this work is part of the topic art and contestation because it denounces a current problem that of the pollution because of it the ressidents are regularly sick, thanks to a single image it can make thousands of people react even millions of people because of the popularity of this artist , he got ten millions followers on instagram.
Now i will explain the message of banksy thanks to his work
so if we observing better the work we can realizes that the child is in reality far from catching snowflakes: he swallows the ashes
then banksy did not choose the place of his work at random one the Port Talbot is the most polluted place in the United Kingdom and when bansky fans will want to watch his work they will see the blast furnace in the background, they will be able to become aware of the big problem of pollution.
my impressions of this work are that bansky has chosen his place with intelligence and that the problem that he denounces is one of the biggest problem for the future is the Global warning
Conclusion : To conclude banksy is an unknown artist but very famous thanks to his works that denounce much problem of the society like pollution or child abuse .
