Chávez eyes

[3] During an election gathering, thousands of Chávez supporters wore red shirts printed with his eyes in black.

[1] Following Chávez's death, Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro adopted the emblem after coming to power, placing the eyes on "billboards, walls, and even the facades of public buildings".

[5] Between 2011 and 2017 the Venezuelan government built 1.3 million new homes as part of its Great Mission Housing Venezuela project.

Following the National Assembly's move, the Venezuelan government asked for muralists "to paint against censorship", with murals beginning to flood throughout Caracas.

[7] Some who experienced the work say that it instils a presence of Chávez, a sense that he is "always watching you" that has been compared to the Orwellian figure, Big Brother.
