Zapata

This portrait of Emiliano Zapata pays tribute to a revolutionary spirit that refused to be silenced. Known as a champion of the people, Zapata stood for land, liberty, and justice, wielding a machete of defiance in one hand and a manifesto for change in the other. His story isn’t just history; it’s a reminder that the fight for freedom is never far away.

In this piece, I wanted to capture not just his iconic mustache and piercing gaze, but the fierce resolve of a man who fought for dignity in a world determined to deny it. Zapata’s legend is etched into the strokes of this artwork — bold, unyielding, and forever inspiring.
