Artwork Description:
This contemporary art project by Nicholaas Chiao draws its title and concept from the song 'Bloody Sunday' by The Cranberries, which references the tragic shooting during protests in Ireland in January 1972. The artist frequently listened to this song at his dacha during the summer, imbuing the season with a somber tone.
