The artwork, titled "Power Play," depicts Trump and Putin as friends, seated together around a chessboard, engaged in a dangerous game. Rather than traditional chess pieces, the board features figures that represent the essence of each leader's power, influence, and the potential threats they pose to other nations and humanity. By positioning these "threatening pieces" on the chessboard, the artwork highlights the precarious nature of their friendship and the risky game they play, where their interactions could have significant consequences. The title "Power Play" captures the essence of this delicate relationship, emphasizing the strategic and hazardous dynamics at play, casting a shadow over global stability, peace, and economic instability worldwide.

Lisa Törner lives and works in Stockholm and she practically grew up in an artist's studio. It is her father, the potter and illustrator Bernt Törner who inspired and encouraged her to paint already as a child.
Lisa has a unique design technique combining historic financial events and communicating that message via animals sketched and painted directly on financial press.
”the thinker pose”. One of the most well know poses, symbolizing creative minds at work and inner struggle. Shown at a bronze statue in Paris by the artist Rodin. Lisas ”Monkey Business” transfers the thinker pose to the animal world. Sketched directly on Wall Street Journal, this work symbolizes the financial industry not at alltimes acting with honesty and good faith.
