the person who is caged by his own society. grined to death, not allowed to hearsee or speak

Trandition can act also as a caging element. It covers our eyes from seeing new things, stops us from thinking new ideas and blocks our freedom of speach.

The Leader. Situated on a car jack as a symbol of the palestinian leader. On the left side of the brain, instead of thoughts and emotions, appears a chair. To say: all he thinks about, is his political position.

A phrase from the bible. The meat grinder symbolises lies and deception. Instead of a tongue appears a hand with coins, to say all want is money and that is our corruption.

The working man. In his lungs you will find tax receipts. All that he consumes is measured by the pressure clock. The body sits in a bomb shell because alol he is expected to do is to blow himself up. On the neck sits a lock to which only the leader has the key.

A block of the seperation wall. the person is caged inside it to symbolise the effect of the wall on both the occupier, Israel, and the occupied, Palestine.

The palestinian women. The fundamental connection to the land is symbolised in the harvesting knifes. The traditional hand work is symbolised by the sawing machine. The deer is one of the Palestine´s natural inhabitants. All three elements are almost extinguished from our land.

A pregnant woman that conceals from within the three monotheistic religions. On the other hand appears a person who carries them all on his back. The hand from above forces them to stick together in this land which is represented in the base of the sculpture.
