The Persistence of Ignoranceby `IreneLangholm

Digital Art / Photomanipulation / Macabre & Horror

This is not Nazi propaganda. It's merely a reminder of what once was allowed to happen, and what still exists. (Hence the symbol on the arm; triskele.)

The Neo-Nazi triskele is a symbol resembling a three armed swastika, used by several Christian white supremacy organizations and other hate groups. The arms are numerals, "777," symbolizing triumph over the antichrist.
^[link]
I combined two of these symbols into one as a sort of my personal aversion
to Neo-Nazism. It still gives me the creeps though.

Hehe, funny.

This is not directed particularly at Nazism, but towards all destructive ideologies, from right wing to left wing, religious and non religious. Both spectrums have their own machineries with the goal to deconstruct societies and take away freedoms.

Your art is amazing, I love your editing and your general style, but I think this is my favourite. The editing, the colour and textures, just everything about it I think looks great. A very important message behind it, too.

`IreneLangholm Aug 13, 2011

Thank you most kindly.
