Art and Politics
Simulacra refer to copies or representations of things that either no longer have an original or never had one in the first place. This concept suggests that our understanding of reality is shaped by these copies, often leading to a blurring of the lines between what is real and what is merely a representation, particularly in the context of political art where images and symbols can take on new meanings independent of their original contexts.
