| Equality (Égalité). A visual interpretation of philosophical category “equality” as equality of people in front of God. Three sculptures of a simplified (virtual) image of a praying man (staying with extended arms, kneeled down, and in a full earth-low bow) – all scaled vertically up to common height. The sculptures were 3D-printed and coated with chromium, so that they would serve as mirrors to visitors. This “equality” is of quite ambivalent nature: the more humble a person is before God (the lower his or her bow is), the more “important” his or her image grows. Gor Chahal. Moscow, 2015. (Translated by Ivan Lukov). |
