A green bird stares out from the canvas, framed against a birdcage and the written phrase little home is mine. Indonesian artist Anton Papo paints this curious scene with a modern aesthetic, fully employing the media to express himself. For the artist, this painting reflects on how each of us may feel that we are constrained or squeezed by factors that we can't control, much like the bird who is too big for his cage. Says Papo, We have to take control of our feelings instead of allowing our feelings to control us.
