THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES
Arthur Kwon Lee
Created 2019
The Emperors New Clothes is a depiction of infamous Roman emperor Nero. Nero as we know is often referred to as the Anti-Christ due to this narcissistic and malicious nature. The reason I am interested in making works on the shadow archetype is because they are important for psychological integration, and Nero is one of the individuals who historically reached the peak of this drama. This portrait was been selected and invited by SCOPE in art Basel in 2019.
