Freedom as Permission, Law as Leash - Modern Gallery Style Wall Art

Artist: B. Pazant
A bold reinterpretation of the Liberty Bell — fractured, layered, and questioning the very ideals it symbolizes. This collage-style artwork combines fragments of “We the People”, protest posters, and torn parchment, symbolizing how freedom in America has too often been conditional, rationed, or weaponized.

The barbed wire across the bell becomes a haunting reminder: the same laws meant to secure liberty can also constrain it.
Rendered in vintage stencil texture and a rich, muted resistance palette, this piece balances history and rebellion — the perfect companion to “The Most Dangerous Creation” and “Real Liberty Is Unruly.”
