The Great Strike 

"The Great Strike" by Devin Leonardi (1981-2014) is a captivating monochrome artwork depicting a stark scene of industrial decay. The composition, dominated by the skeletal remains of a train engine and various mechanical parts, suggests a post-apocalyptic landscape. The pale blue hues and the vast, empty sky above contribute to a sense of desolation and abandonment. Leonardi's keen eye for detail and realistic portrayal of the metallic structures emphasizes the impact of industrialization and its eventual decay. The work invites viewers to ponder themes of progress, decline, and the lasting consequences of human activity.
