My Master's Thesis focuses on censorship, a complex phenomenon that spans the history of artistic creation, media, and digital technology. I approach censorship not as a simple prohibition, but as a social, political, and cultural mechanism that profoundly influences the way artists, institutions, and the public perceive freedom of expression. The work is structured around three main parts: first, an exploration of the reasons underlying censorship across time and contexts (ethical, moral, religious, political); second, an analysis of the creative challenges it imposes and the circumvention strategies implemented by artists; and finally, a reflection on possible alternatives for developing fairer censorship in the digital age and global communication.
