THEY FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE — Work #57
A man can learn to see.
Having become a seer,
he becomes everything by becoming nothing.
He dissolves among ordinary people —
sharing their folly.
The only difference —
the seer controls his folly.
The ordinary man does not.

Andrii Tuz is a contemporary visual artist based in Wexford, Ireland. His artistic practice explores human perception, identity, social structures and the relationship between individuals and the contemporary world. His ongoing project, "THEY FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE", is a visual protest examining power, manipulation, digital noise and the growing influence of artificial intelligence. Rooted in the belief in authentic human expression, the project stands for human-made art and independent creative thought. In 2026, he developed two distinct artistic directions. "BROKEN FLOWERS" is an expressive painting series built on colour, energy, rhythm and pulsation. Through spontaneous gestures, layered textures and abstract compositions, it explores emotional intensity and visual perception beyond conventional narrative. "TORN OFF" is a mixed-media paper collage series using fragments of newspapers, magazines, advertising materials and other everyday paper. Through tearing, cutting and reconstructing found imagery, the works transform familiar visual messages into new artistic statements. Working across painting, digital art and handmade collage, Andrii creates original artworks driven by experimentation, personal expression and a distinctly human approach to art.
