OKAPAKA (DK)

OKAPAKA (“au cas par cas”, French for “on a case to case basis”) is a Danish contemporary artist, writer and installation artist with a past in European politics and diplomacy having worked as an analyst for the French armed forces. The main corpus of the artist’s work is heavily politicized with each piece aspiring to make the viewer politically conscious and take action in the world we all share.

“Peace through superior firepower” is no different. Half of the money from the sale will be donated to the Armed Forces of Ukraine (Збройні сили України) giving the spectator the opportunity to be on the right side of history in this crucial moment by helping a country and its people in their fight for survival in an unjust unprovoked genocidal war of aggression.

The work consists of three separate unique pieces numbered I, II and III, and a band of cloth in the colors of the French flag the Tricolore The pieces I and III measure 48 cm times 38 cm with piece number II measuring 71 cm times 10 cm.

Lead by example. Sī vīs pācem, parā bellum.
