The artwork titled “God and Man, No Religion” by Kent Monkman, created in 2012, belongs to the Postcolonial and Queer art movements and falls within the figurative genre.
In the artwork, there is a dramatic landscape dominated by steep, towering cliffs and a cascading waterfall, likely capturing the sublime beauty of a natural setting. The lush greenery with trees and rocks in the foreground contrasts with the imposing rocky background. Prominently, there are two anthropomorphic figures, one dark and one golden-bronze, seemingly engaged or interacting with each other in a dance or struggle. The meticulous attention to detail and the interplay between nature and the human-like figures create a powerful visual narrative that explores themes intrinsic to both Postcolonial and Queer art.
