The state, the classes, the political parties, the responsibility always oscillates in regards to “the other” as if the individual is nothing but a mere puppet, a marionette, always a byproduct and sometimes even a casualty in the grand scheme of things. Often without the capability of reflection and engaged in self-deception of moral high ground, he seeks to blame everyone else but himself, blinded he shouts the goodness of his being forgetting ‘even in the best of all hearts, there remains … an un-uprooted small corner of evil.’ Then the question arises, who is to be blamed? Who is at fault for the degeneration of reality as we know it, surely it’s not the individual because he is nothing but a mere puppet, a marionette?

This piece seeks to raise questions about culpability and accountability. As humans we struggle to come to terms with the distribution of “fate” within the fabric of being, It’s also then an exercise and a commentary on ‘the line dividing good and evil’ and the fight for it.

The two small white figures resemble animals with outstretched hands and feet as claws, are an embodiment and a personification of the spirit of the innocent in archetypical terms, morphed by their surroundings, they still in essence remain “pure”. Forgotten and cast aside by their peers and society, the ethos of these children is manifested in the main figure and hopefully within the viewer.
