Title: The Masked Laborer — Drawing #115 of 300
Description:
A haunting figure stands between horror and history—its hockey mask recalling cinematic nightmares, its machete and spear nodding to both violence and survival. In The Masked Laborer, Gianni Lee transforms the familiar slasher archetype into a satirical worker, draped in utilitarian garb that hints at the everyday grind. Blood-like splatters become marks of both labor and resistance, suggesting that the monsters we fear may be stitched into the fabric of ordinary life.

Each piece in this series is a singular, hand-painted original by Gianni Lee. These works are not reproduced or printed—ensuring the uniqueness and collectibility of each artwork.
Medium
Executed with archival paint markers on Arches® Watercolour Paper—a museum-grade, 100% cotton substrate made in France. Renowned for its exceptional texture and longevity, the paper is mould-made for structural integrity, naturally white with a rough-textured finish, and weighs a substantial 300 lb (640 gsm) for superior durability. It is acid-free, internally and externally gelatin-sized, and air-dried to ensure optimal pigment absorption. The result is a richly textured and vibrant surface that enhances both the visual impact and archival quality of the work.
