Suppression in the Bullet Practice
An Echo of Freedom Against Repression A work by Master Ahmad Najafafi, created with colored pencils in dimensions of 50×65 cm, goes beyond a mere painting; it is a visual statement of the eternal struggle between freedom and repression. This piece not only tells the story of an individual but also depicts a universal truth—a truth that flows across the world, from the tumultuous streets to silent societies.
Analysis of the Artwork | Between Philosophy, Drama, dan History From a philosophical perspective, this artwork raises a fundamental question: Is freedom a natural gift, or is it a right that must be fought for? The free-flowing hair in this painting serves as a metaphor for liberation, yet it is entangled in a trigger that is ready to fire—just as in a situation where any act of freedom can become a threat to repressive powers. From a dramatic viewpoint, the contrast between the soft, fluid movement of the hair and the cold, rigid violence of the weapon creates a silent but devastating tension. The bullet that shatters the ear does not merely silence a sound; it is a symbol of the attempt to erase truth and freedom of expression.

From an artistic perspective, the work employs modern conceptual painting techniques, recalling the works of European surrealists like Francis Bacon in their depiction of violence, while also incorporating abstract elements from contemporary Middle Eastern art, where art is often intertwined with politics and protest.
Dari segi sejarah, this painting is a reminder of significant moments in contemporary history—from revolutions and freedom movements to the bloody suppressions that have arisen against them. From Tunisia and Chile to Hong Kong, throughout history, freedom has always been under fire.
