This Sculpture is about freedom. Although at first glance, he appears a prisoner shackled to a pillar(past). The reality is the link in the chain is broken and rusty. His closed eyes symbolises mans unconscious enslavement to his past. He is so accustomed to being in a set of circumstances or beliefs that he still acts as if he is confined and defined by them (chained). This work reminds me, that unless I consciously choose to re-evaluate my beliefs about myself and my paradigms, i will continue to be restrained by my past rather than live free in the present.
