Abraded

Work from the series 'March'68', created by Leszek Sobocki in the same year, in response to the March events which the artist directly witnessed. 'Scraped', presenting the March stigmatisation with physical oppression, as well as its victims, was created under the influence of the artist's experiences during student protests, brutally suppressed by the communist authorities. The human figures presented in dynamic poses bring to mind students during protests, dodging baton blows, running away from the militia or throwing stones in response to the attacking officers' aggression..
