Terry Orwell for Art-Sheep

Interested in the effects of media deluge, French artist Benjamin Moravec questions the socially constructed values and images that spread throughout contemporary visual culture with his paintings. He believes that our understanding of these matters is being progressively shaped by advertising, the internet and other media, instead of our own values and ideals. The media “tries to swallow us when we are young, and impose its opinions on us as we grow older,” Moravec says.
