Recently we have had to contemplate what is acceptable art on RedBubble from a social perspective. The first point to make is that we are not the government. Our governments and courts are there to protect freedom of expression. At RedBubble we believe they should do so vigorously. This does not mean RedBubble needs to be the home for all expression. We can defend the ideal while still having a narrower editorial focus at RedBubble. We have never allowed pornography, for example. So, what is acceptable? Two particular works have bought this issue into focus. They are: We have asked a wide cross section of the RedBubble community about these works and more generally about RedBubble’s content guidelines. On balance, and after much debate, we have decided on guidelines that will result in the removal of these works. Of particular concern to us is the conjunction of violent imagery with a national symbol held in reverence by many. The net result is not a political statement but a statement that demeans an entire nation. Such a statement is inflammatory and does not further rational discussion. The general statement is that we will not allow works that have malicious use of stereotypes intended to attack or demean a particular gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, or nationality. It is possible to make genuine political or social points without stepping over this line. We don’t expect this policy to be welcomed by everybody. RedBubble supports free speech and everyone’s right to express unpopular views (or even popular views). But we also need to foster an environment where the debate can be rationally held without connotations of violence or the inciting of hate. We will leave these works up for the next little while so that the full community can be informed about the issue. You can find a full explanation of our content guidelines here.

I believe this image has somehow created itself out of my subconscious…it seems to represent my childhood in GDR where I’ve been living a simple and happy life blissfully unaware of the restrictions that lay ahead and the lack of freedom…. It was not until later that I’ve realized how trapped I felt. Speaking your mind was dangerous and critizing the regime was certainly the quickest way to get locked up. Trying to leave the country could easily turn into a death sentence but obeying was too. I created this image for the Texture challenge in the Fine Art Composite group. I used four of my own photographs and various textures. Two of the textures (Splatter and Crystals) were kindly supplied by RavenSoul to be used for the challenge. Featured in the European Everyday Life group on 15 Mar 2009. Winner of the Texture challenge in the Fine Art Composites group on 16 Feb 2009.

Oil and mixed media..on 140lb langdon Press not cold pressed paper.335×254 mm / This started off with a black and white figure,,cariature of self.. inspired by headless ’s work. Black on white lines radiated out from the figure ,making a disturbing image.. and the the transformation ..and transcendence of my inner self happened.. with the melting of the tones in oils..the lightness obscuring the darkness.. transforming my frenetic energy into a feeling of openess and possibility. .The whole image is not depicted… The original is for sale for 100 euros. .I am a struggling artist in need of recognition. so I may continue to support myself and my family .

I decided to do this oil painting of my ephemeral art project concept. / The title means that every little effort you put in helps. They can set an example and before you know it, more people are putting that little bit of effort in. / For me, this brings to mind the water restriction issues currently in Australia. If we all do a little something to control our water use, the issue will be resolved faster. Alas I aways see people over watering their foreign plants to compete with the harsh Australian environment. And so we give up paradise for a parking lot.

A chain-locked door leading into a vacated and decaying industrial park building. There were multiple areas that somewhat freely led into the building. Inside, it looked as if the place had become a home to the homeless, complete with couches and a roll of toilet tissue.
