Description oil on canvas
36x48in
2009

(inspired from odd nerdrum's dawn)


This disturbing piece showing repetitive images of a smoke spewing man depicts the autogenous destruction brewing in Man’s lungs caused by the massive consumption of mortuary sticks peddled by tobacco enterprises. The artist provides a bleak insight of the alarming increase rate of smokers every second, which would inevitably affect the global breathing system.
