Monumental Propaganda of the World of My Dreams 2020

Kateryna Lysovenko’s ‘Monumental Propaganda of the World of My Dreams’ presents us with an intriguing composite. The mural’s rough surface texture contrasts with the smooth rendering of a centaur-like figure, evoking an immediate sense of fragmented realities. The form itself is a destabilization of established categories: a female figure, a child, and a horse, merged to question conventional notions of identity and representation. The banner held by the figure is not merely decorative but rather a semiotic device, signaling a message that demands interpretation. Through its structure and composition, the artwork encourages us to unpack the layers of meaning, prompting a conversation about the values and narratives we construct. This piece challenges fixed meanings, suggesting art is a site of ongoing interpretation.
