This
photograph is basically talking about art stealing. Today, the rate of art
stealing has grown increasingly high due the easy excess of Internet. Perhaps
the first question you might ask since you have heard a quote by Pablo Picasso
– “Good artists copy, great artists steal”. Yes, definitely true! But the
“steal” in this photo is meant to be the stealth of people’s artworks, whereas
the “steal” in Picasso’s quote.
You might
think this is just a small thing as the whole world is doing it. What if one
day you see your artwork published by others and cited it their own, and you
can actually do nothing about that instead of getting pissed off in front of
the screen.
The
photograph shows a slice of green apple is stapled on a red apple. Why? The red
apple signifies the original artwork while the green apple slice signifies the
part that others manipulate on. The entire apple seems almost perfect, but
actually it’s not. With the additional staples on the cut, it enhances and
strengthens the message to show that those whole steal other’s art works
actually try all they can to cover their flaws, manipulate and own the
entire artwork.
