Lugh Hastur is an Austrian artist. Since the year 2020, restrictive measures have been in force in many countries, into which people have entered, voluntarily and sometimes with great enthusiasm. This bleak analysis of the present has inspired Lugh Hastur to create the collection »Citizens of Dystopia«.
Lugh Hastur shows disturbed beings, insecure creatures who squeeze themselves into painful disguises. Unpleasant to painful contraptions hide their faces. However, the »Citizens of Dystopia« proudly display their conformity. Hastur himself is not excluded; he too hides his identity behind a mask.
The »Citizens of Dystopia« collection comprises 99 unique portraits. At the moment 14 of 99 portraits are finished.
