We felt this masterfully rendered piece successfully conveyed themes of death, vulnerability, isolation, addiction and fragmenting identity, all of which are central to the song. We like the ambiguity of gender, age, race, culture, sexuality and even temporal placement, all of which make this art universally effective. The subtle window frame in the background is such a tasteful and evocative way of both creating a sense of space and of metaphorical entrapment. What appear to be bejewelled eyes adds another layer of intrigue, and the DB logo on the mirror is a nice touch. Congratulations, victorious Viktor!<br \/>\nWe\u2019re truly humbled by how much time, thought and heart you all put into your artwork, so we have chosen a number of our other favourites in the gallery below. Seeing how you interpreted the words and music was fascinating and it was life-affirming to see our passion inspiring your passion.[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-138056&#8243; medias=&#8221;66480,66481,66482,66483,66484,66485,66486,66487,66488,66489,66490,66492&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; media_items=&#8221;media|lightbox|original,title&#8221; screen_lg=&#8221;1000&#8243; screen_md=&#8221;600&#8243; screen_sm=&#8221;480&#8243; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; single_title_dimension=&#8221;h2&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Announcing the winner of our \u201cIf You Kill My Demons\u201d art competition: Viktor Pedersen![\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image media=&#8221;66491&#8243; media_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243;][vc_column_text]Viktor work will be [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":168,"featured_media":66491,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.6 (Yoast SEO v22.4) -
