'First Aid Kit For Nuclear Fallout (version 'A') 12"H 8"W 6D Mix Media 1983 I do not like this work of mine, but I had to make it! It was a bottle of whisky and some poison. I have made a few versions of it. There was one with a noose in the same box. Another one with a gun and named bullets, for the father, the mother and the siblings. I wanted to shock people into realization that if a nuclear war would break out between the super powers, than humankind as a species would not survive. This work was exhibited at the SSC annual show and everybody hated it. But in view of two decades, I feel it was necessary to make these works. |
