Following Orders (Graffitied), does not engage in political discussions or make calls to protest against violence, it cannot change anything or our nature; it’s simply a monument to our legacy of annihilating each other in defence of territorial pissings, people control, power pursuits and assumed rights to domination.
Just as the original Romulus and Remus sculpture aims to give substance to the myth of the birth of the Roman Empire, Romulus and Remus Reprised aims to give substance to the birth of the screen which has awoken our collective unconscious stare into the glow of ancestral fires. The screen and its hypnotising glow are yielding new frontiers, new strategies of people control and people management through numbing addictions, all of which help steer a select few into unforeseen wealth and new global Empires. Romulus and Remus Reprised aims to start conversations of the relevance and impact of the screen in modern existence.
