Unknown. "All Those Shapes." All Those Shapes. Unknown, n.d. Web. 25 Feb. 2015.
I found this picture using the simplest
method that I could of: I went on Google images and typed in, “satirical street
art”, and boom images started popping up left and right. Amazing right? I know.
Out of all the images that popped up, this one stood out to me the most. I
laughed at first because it reminds of that Pinocchio commercial: “Did you know
that Pinocchio was a bad motivational speaker?” Now let me be honest, I have no
idea what this picture is about, or what it is relating to; but I can obviously
tell that it is satirical.
Call
me an idiot, but I don’t even know who the guy in the picture is. I like his
suit though, it fits him nicely: I own a couple of those myself. Now if I had to guess, I’d say that the guy
in the picture is some type of leader; but not just a leader, he’s a leader
that lies a lot. Looks like I’m getting somewhere here. He’s probably Hitler’s
younger brother or something of that nature.
The cool thing about satirical street
art, or satire in general, is that different people break down the meaning in
their own way. For example, my interpretation of this might be totally
different from someone else’s. To me, the picture portrays a lying leader; but
someone else could be like, “Kervain bro you’re a savage, that guy in the suit
is obviously a WWE wrestler.” And a third person could jump into the
conversation and say, “You’re both freaking ridiculous, the little guy in the
picture is obviously an alien porn star, don’t you see how long his nose is?” I
guess the point I’m trying to make here is that we all have our different views
on satire.
