Ryan Barnes, Hero's Return, 2024, acrylic on canvas, 20 in x 16 in

In this acrylic painting, I really wanted to connect landscape painting with my icelandic heritage and what I have been feeling. I began painting mountains that can be seen on an island in the Norwegian Sea and added to the ocean a norse "picture stone" like depiction of vikings returning. While the two fit in theme, they don't fit in style which is representative of how I feel returning home as a veteran struggling to fit where I once did.

Translation: What a shitshow. This years Eurovision has gone to hell. And it's first and foremost the EBU's fault.

Also, excerpt from the same article:

Throughout the course of the Eurovision Song Contest, the EBU has acted as if they live in a parallel universe. Eurovision is one thing, the world outside something else. The EBU has stuck its head in the sand. Shoved the problem under the rug. Held their hands over their ears and shouted LALALALALA. They appear to have done everything they can to pretend it's possible to hold an apolitical event in a world that's on fire. We have come together to be "united by music", they say, but the sharpshooters on Malmö's rooftops have nothing to do with us! In its struggle to remain apolitical, the EBU has become like a small fascist state in itself, where the artists' space for expression and action has been reduced as much as the undergarments of the Spanish dancers. It is reprehensible.

Reminder again to BOYCOTT EUROVISION 🇵🇸

Don't watch, don't vote.
