This painting contains nine faces wearing blindfolds with eyes drawn on top crowded into one plane, with the suggestion of more faces above and below. The uniformity of the heads and the blindfolds with the handdrawn eyes might evoke the repression and censorship of the Soviet masses, beholden to their government’s pursuit of a unified socialist society.
