Hand-signed acrylic original artwork by Yama.
‘Censored Content’ marks a significant shift in Homini's narrative, moving away from the innocence and optimism introduced in ‘Bubbling’ and towards a more critical exploration of technology, media consumption, and personal identity.
The artwork examines the impact of living in a world saturated by digital content and social media. Through Homini, YAMA explores how constant exposure to information, algorithms, and online platforms can influence the way individuals think, behave, and perceive reality. The artwork questions whether modern technology is empowering people with knowledge and connection or gradually reducing their ability to think independently.
At the centre of the work is the concept of censorship, controlled information and the overconsumption of social media. YAMA is interested in the complex relationship between protection and manipulation, asking where the line exists between filtering harmful content and shaping public perception. Rather than presenting a definitive answer, the artwork encourages viewers to reflect on their own relationship with information and the sources they trust. Reflecting on how endless scrolling, screen dependency, and algorithm-driven content can gradually absorb attention and influence behaviour. In this sense, technology becomes both a source of connection and a force that can disconnect people from their own identity.
Homini's playful expression creates an intentional contrast with the seriousness of the subject matter. While the character appears curious and approachable, there is an underlying sense of uncertainty that invites deeper interpretation.
The monochromatic colour palette reflects a noticeable evolution in Homini's character. Compared to the bright and hopeful atmosphere of 'Bubbling', the absence of colour suggests a loss of vibrancy and individuality. The greyscale tones symbolise the effects of prolonged exposure to filtered information and digital environments, where personal opinions, creativity, and authentic expression can become diluted or suppressed.
Through Homini, YAMA represents these concerns in a visually engaging and accessible way. Beneath the playful imagery lies a deeper commentary on modern society's relationship with technology, encouraging viewers to consider how much of their thinking is truly their own and how much is shaped by the content they consume every day.

The artist
Yama
With a rapidly expanding body of work, YAMA is quickly earning recognition as a compelling voice in contemporary art. Making his debut with Castle Fine Art at Art Miami this year, we introduce a collection of work that’s visually playful but quietly provocative, blending social commentary with nostalgic pop culture.
View the artist
Raised in post-Soviet Lithuania and entirely self-taught, YAMA began sketching imagined worlds as a child. Today, those early drawings have evolved into expressive, character-led paintings that explore themes of consumerism, conformity and identity. His bright colours, soft gradients and painterly textures contrast with the weight of the ideas beneath, inviting viewers into a world that’s gentle on the surface but rich with meaning.
