Piotr Szyhalski
DING AN SICH  1997
Commissioned by Gallery 9


"In the opening of this piece [Piotr Szyhalski's Ding an sich, Canon 00], I saw nature, architecture, the human body, math, symbols, language in all these layers. I think it was about showing the human civilization. The one with the tools that turn into snakes and then words [Canon 11], I think could be showing how modern things dig criminals into deeper holes, like the hacker landing a life sentence for making the 'Melissa' virus, and that with power comes responsibility."
