Enough




Enough Digital collage, 2025 – Honys Torres

Enough is a visual outcry against the cyclical repetition of institutional racism in the United States. The piece draws from the 2015 killing of Freddie Gray, who died from spinal injuries after being arrested and transported by Baltimore police. His death sparked massive protests, fires, and a wave of outrage that fueled the Black Lives Matter movement, demanding justice and police reform.

But Enough doesn’t stop there—it portrays the pattern. Before and after Gray, there were other names, other marches, other hashtags. Justice appears as a clown dressed in the word JUSTICE, while the phrase “EL BRAZO LARGO de la LEY” (“The Long Arm of the Law”) becomes a grotesquely oversized hand that oppresses racialized bodies. It’s a media spectacle with new slogans, new birthdays of indignation, but no resolution.

The artwork incorporates phrases like “NO JUSTICE NO PEACE”, “BLACK LIVES MATTER”, “TIME for Change”, and “ENOUGH”, surrounded by vibrant colors, cartoonish figures, and protest symbols. It’s a bitter parody of political theater, where justice dances in disguise and racism continues under new branding.

Enough denounces institutional hypocrisy, systemic impunity, and the theatricalization of pain. It’s a piece that doesn’t ask—it demands memory, truth, and rupture.
