The second article deliberately emphasises the universality of rights regardless of origin, ethnicity, religion, or background. The paradox of universal human rights: they are the same for each person (universal), but everybody experiences them differently.
The serial piece Article 2 (2025), which depicts the slow, systematic disintegration of the Second Article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, is both a physical and metaphorical reflection of this phenomenon. While the article guarantees equal rights to all individuals, regardless of origin, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion, the visual dissolution of the text serves as a stark reminder that these fundamental rights, though enshrined in law, are continually under threat in political discourse.
