The “potato” portrait of Alexander Lukashenko – illegitimate president of Belarus, dictator and criminal, who immersed the country into repressions and fear, who supports V. Putin in every way, including war in Ukraine. 

“Potato men” – a bit offensive nickname of Belarusians, because of the most famous dish in Belarus, which is potato pancakes. The series of portraits “Potato dictatorship” shows the representatives of the regime as old rotten wrinkled potatoes which should be thrown away in a trash bin of history.
