Through painting, I wish to discuss anxiety as an abnormality of a contemporary man, which appears as intense inner unrest. In relation to this, I am interested and agitated by the system of surveillance and social manipulation, the question of the right of (non-)participation and individual's potential to avoid expectations and become an autonomous individual. The basis is the belief that anxiety is a product of a set of situations, requirements, rules, and events in the time of the individual's development. With the help of the selected literature, I will address anxiety, the development of identity and the society and its procedures to subdue and control masses, which serves as an inspiration for a set of paintings that through various artistic principles suggest the problem of social impact on an individual.
