882021 is a visual artist/musician from Myanmar who makes music videos that focus on the revolution that is currently taking place. The name 882021 is a combination of the two years (1988 and 2021) in which major protests took place against the military of Myanmar. The name is also based on the hex colour #882021, which is the colour of dried blood; a reminder of all the people that have lost their lives to the injustices of the military.

“882021 is a video artist who wishes to remain anonymous. By creating engaging, heart wrenching moving image references to the coup and its violent fall out, 882021’s Rap Against Junta depicts the crimes of the military and the anger shared by so many in the country and around the world.”
