Creative Expression vs. Suppression | Clifton Duncan
Channel: Revolution of One
Date: 2022-12-08

When suppression and censorship are daily issues, what role do artists play in defending free expression? 

The artist under pressure to conform, the art lover facing emptiness in today's art—both are robbed of what free expression offer us.

Clifton Duncan and Salomé Sibonex defend the need for bold, daring art and freedom of expression in this video art piece.
