Punishment
——
2019
Screen print on mirror
40 x 25 cm
The work is based on a picture taken during World War II by renowned news photographer Robert Capa. It shows a French woman who had a child with a Nazi soldier having her hair shaved as punishment and being made to walk down a public street, while many French citizens ridicule her.
Okido processed the picture into abstracts and printed it on a mirror using a silkscreen technique. Viewers see the image of the past and at the same time see themselves in the present staring at it.
