APATHY FOR THE SETTING SUN, 2011
refers to the idea that the sun sets over a
thousand times a day all over the world.
Begging the question whether this nostalgic
moment, this constant state of setting could
have any significance.
This artificial sun represents the centre,
the protector, the provider of warmth and life,
while simultaneously expressing the latent
explosive danger inherent in the technological
and eternal hydrogen bomb.
