In the name of the Father

2011

In the name of the Father

Composite materials
150 x 172 x 150
Unique

Through this pyramidal installation the artist expresses mankind’s attempt to get closer to the truth and to the gods like in Ancient Egypt where pyramids symbolized the transition from life to death.


With the use of boxes, the artist emphasizes the conservative aspect of the references of each community to the Father (s) as a connection to a patrilineal filiation whilst the Mother Land is so intensely contested.


In the land of God, "the Father", portraits of real or spiritual fathers exposed for all to see can be found in most homes and shops (regardless of religion or culture) (pictures on the boxes, 2011).
