STATE
The three-dimensional drawing "STATE" deals with the current socio-cultural condition of the world, in which the geopolitical landscape is largely determined by conflict and resistance. "STATE" shows our world as a circular battlefield, littered with casualties: countless tiny figures, singly cut from black paper and pinned to the wall, are walking, standing, kneeling, falling, lying down, but also working together and supporting each other.
‘...Step back and they form the population of a spotlit planet, a floating sphere that points to man’s ultimate insignificance. Step forward and they argue for the intimate importance of our presence in the scheme of things...’ (Cristín Leach Hughes, Sunday Times 7 April 2013)
This piece contains around 1600 silhouettes.
