Following the leader

Moshe Cohen

Following the leader

Follow the leader,
forget who you are.

Just follow the leader,
do what he wants.

Follow the leader,
don’t think, it is just your ego.

Follow the leader,
he knows the way.

He is the leader,
he knows the way.

Does he know the way?

This work is about the folly of blindly following a leader.
All the elements of this image are designed to show this message.
The cold and unreal place, could be anywhere and nowhere, the unfocused faces, and desaturation of the followers and the fact that the leader and the followers are the same person.
The unfocused faces of the followers, show that when you follow blindly a leader, you loose your personality and freedom, and become part of the crowd where all are a pale clones of the leader.
Mybe there are worthy leaders, but they would not demand a bilnd compliance.
History shows that such leaders know the way to hell.
What do you think?
What makes a good leader?

    Yes it would work well with sheep,

    This work is about the folly of blindly following a leader.
