Scale of Justice by Shyan Spicer
Acrylic
Inspiration:
Piece 1 (Divine Law) and two (Scale of Justice) are a combined piece depicting my introspection of justice and its divine and often fair characteristics. The scale side should equality and the divine side? Well it's just that - Divinity.
What role does art play in your life?
Art is my life. I intend to have a career in art when released. I have a couple of business ideas that ensure that art will always be around me. The universe inspires me and all the wonderful miracles in it.
Justice statement:
I believe justice should be equal for all, but what I've found is that this is far from the truth about how justice is portrayed in society today. I'm seeing instances where people who are repeat offenders are getting less time than first time offenders because they take a plea deal. Every crime in my belief should be equally dealt with and every crime should have equal stipulations such as physical evidence should be presented and if witnesses are found to be lying in any way, they should be excused as witnesses. I apologize for my forward thinking but justice should be for all, not some.
