About The Artwork
“Patriot Games”
20”x16”- Acrylic on Canvas. (Original Painting). 10.5″x13″ (Giclée Print)
Former San Francisco 49er NFL Quarterback turned civil rights activist, Colin Kaepernick, is portrayed as Justice kneeling for justice. Kaepernick sparked controversy in 2016 when he knelt during the national anthem prior to his games. This bold move was a public protest against racial injustice and excessive police brutality in the US.
Since then, many players and teams followed suit by “taking the knee” during the national anthem. Colin Kaepernick ‘s movement has propelled him into the forefront as a leader in the fight for civil and equal rights in America, and around the globe.
