Created in San Antoni De Portmani. Carrer Bisbe Torres 13. Ibiza. Spain. Bloop Festival.
Main story of the image is removing of one head and applying of the new one...to the large pile of stones - body. Stone heads is an image of government and pile of stones - body is a society and structure of the country. Monkey on the top of pile of stones - body, is burning book "Origin of Species", written by Charles Darwin. It is a symbol of revolution because negation of idea of evolution is revolution...
In some ways, to create this piece I was inspired by what is happening in my country- Ukraine, were revolution happend already two times in past 12 years.. Officially, government and president were changed but all the society, and structure of the country almost stay the same - corrupt politicians only changed their dress and took on patriotic colors, and corrupt way of life of the most people. People got illusion of freedom but in fact are stayed under control of corrupt politicians and businessmen who actually ruled the country before revolution and continue now, covering themself by 'patriotism' and using war like tool for manipulation.
