Oil painting
Wanted
A wanted poster that has become a box of perfume.
The packaging shows a bearded face under a white turban, the one the whole world was hunting at the time, and in red letters the brand name: “Wanted”. Underneath are the words “eau de parfum”, and in front stands a small bottle. Painted in 2006, the canvas shows how fear gets packaged, marketed and breathed in.

About the series
Each canvas in this cycle starts from a title — an expression, a brand, a slogan — and treats it as a subject for classical painting. The result is a chronicle of contemporary public life, in which power, money and belief appear as characters.
