“Oppressor” | Surreal Political Collage on Power, Control, and Resistance | by Joan Seed
A love letter from Joan
Darling,
Say NO to the Oppressor. Sending my condolences to all of you that will suffer under the rule of oppression.
Women, LGBTQ+, African Americans, First Nations, underpriv- ileged, homeless, ordinary hard working people and humans who love animals and the environment. Your values will overcome the oppressors of the world. Stand up for your rights.
Love,
Joan

Description
“Oppressor” is a bold surreal collage visualizing themes of control, rebellion, and mass manipulation. A towering hand above a scaffolded tower holds puppet strings that control a crowd of civilians marching in masks—resisting, surviving, conforming. The full moon looms in the background, heightening the dramatic, almost apocalyptic tone. This digital artwork critiques systems of power, making it an ideal piece for collectors of radical visual commentary, political art, and anti-establishment narratives.
