- STATUES -

 

Omnipresent in squares and parks, seated on prancing horses petrified in heroic poses. Bravado, power, grandeur and fearlessness. It is significant how we, as perishable and puny beings, enlarge, exalt, immortalize the elected among us in bronze and marble. As a resistance to our insignificance. On the other hand: what absurd displays of oppression, outdated ideas and shameless vanity
