Exploring Racism through “Leo”


I would like to delve into the topic of racism through “Leo,” if you’ll join me.


The lion is often depicted as a symbol of “royalty,” “strength,” and “dignity.” However, this strength is not merely superficial; it can also suggest inner justice and dignity. The lion is respected by other animals, and its strength is believed to connect to resistance and resilience against racism. In other words, the message conveyed is that true strength lies not only in outward power but also in the respect for diverse backgrounds and different cultures.


When considering the other animals in the background, such as elephants and butterflies, as symbols of different cultures and ethnicities, the scene of their coexistence with the lion expresses diversity and harmony.


The lion’s fur color and the butterfly’s wing colors symbolize various skin tones and races, with the contrast in colors representing the respect for each other’s differences. Additionally, the darker parts of the background symbolize discrimination and misunderstanding, while the bright expression of “Leo” and the flight of the butterfly represent hope and a future of coexistence.


What “Leo” Teaches Us


“Do not fear differences; walking together is true strength.”


The COVID-19 pandemic has brought to light social divisions and discrimination worldwide. The image’s stance of “silent observation” can be interpreted as a symbol of observing social divides and injustices. It seems to internally question the issue of racism that has been highlighted during the pandemic.


“Leo” conveys a silent resistance and a strong message. This artwork transcends mere visual art to deliver a powerful social message.


May my message resonate with many people.
