Description
To stay silent, or be silenced. The painting Speaking Out Is Forbidden is a raw testimony to a silence that is not voluntary. A silence that suffocates the soul. The everyday fear of people living under dictatorship, where truth can be more dangerous than a lie. Yulia Margolit transforms pain into visual language. An oppressive atmosphere, striking symbols, dark colors – all of it draws the viewer into a world where words can kill. And that is precisely why this is a painting that must be seen. It is more than art. It is an act of resistance, memory, and humanity
