About this artwork
I never plan what I will paint for the coming year. I just wait, I wait for my heart to tell me. I know when it speaks and I know that the artwork that I will create will be a real, authentic and emotional realism portrait. It will be an image that burns.
I knew that I had to paint this painting whilst I walked around the factories in the port of Dhaka in Bangladesh. I was transferred into victorian times. I saw factories that were crumbling and… boiling over with the intense heat as the workers inside suffocated under the heat and the pressure to produce and keep producing. I saw young and old with the same look in their eyes as if they had just seen hell. The conditions were terrifying yet somewhere in the west a business owner was getting rich from the toil of these people. The shareholders of the company were scraping at the hot and leathered skin of these people with their sharp fingernails.
I hope that you see a painting that screams as the heavy iron chains rattle
