• Let Humanity Tip Over. I Need Fewer Priorities., 2020 3d render “Things are changing, like they’ve always have in an endless cycle, and humanity still cannot realise just how fragile it is, where its place in this cycle is. So little of what people think and worry about is meaningful. They cling to the superficial, feeding greed, which grows more and more powerful and reckless. The tower of collective greed must topple. Let humanity tip over. I need fewer priorities.” March 2020, Dimitar Solakov View the work in details here
