artist statement:

"You are to suffer,
to carry your burden and the weight of your existence on your back forever. And on this rough road you are to travel.
You walk, with blackness round your eyes blocking your entire vision, and a hole in your head preventing you from knowing.
You are not to learn, to see or to understand.
You are to travel the path Sisyphus,
this is your fate and this is how you are destined to exist.

Note 1: We are all Sisyphus.
Note 2: Sisyphus, at this moment, has the face and the tongue of an Arab.
Note 3: Sisyphus can go on a demonstration and cry out loud against his destiny."
