About this artwork
The work has been marked as a crimescene and the offender has already been found. It is about a society of premature judgement and thinking in black and white instead of shades of gray. Everything that does not fit into the artificial designed world must be eliminated. Animals follow the way of nature, but if it disrups the life of people it’s labelled as a crime. The vice becomes a torture device.
